Amaechi said that the Rivers
state governor, Nyesom Wike has failed in providing good governance for the
people of the state.
The former governor said that
under Wike’s watch, killings and massacre of the people persist all over the
state on a daily basis.
Amaechi, the leader of the APC in
Rivers, said this at the weekend at a rally where he received hundreds of
supporters of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, into the All Progressives
Congress, APC, in Bera, headquarters of Gokana Local Government Area of the
state.
He said, “Every government has a
responsibility to protect lives and property. The reason there is a government
is because the people are alive. If a person dies there will be no government.
“Any government that watches its
people killed every day is an irresponsible government. Governor Wike watches
his people killed every day.
“I met a woman yesterday whose
husband was killed in front of her with her son watching. It could have been
any of you. I can assure you today that this government of Wike has failed.
“When I was your governor, you
slept and I kept awake. As governor, I chased away criminals to their holes. I
know that the reason they are into crime was because they had no money for
them.
“I knew that for you to stop a
man from crime you need to provide an alternative means of livelihood. And to
do that, I started building infrastructures. I built schools, hospitals and
health centres.
“A lot of people were employed in each of the
schools and health facilities I built.”
