We steal because Nigerians don’t
stone us — Amaechi

Rivers State Governor, Mr.
Rotimi Amaechi
| credits: File copy
The Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi
Amaechi, on Saturday said political
office holders steal state funds
because Nigerians do not stone them.
Amaechi, who said this in Lagos at an
event organised to pay tribute to
Nelson Mandela, challenged Nigerians
to hold their leaders accountable.
He said, “If you see a thief and you
allow him to be stealing, what have
you done? You have stoned nobody;
that is why we are stealing. Who have
you stoned? They came out and
started dancing oil subsidy, oil
subsidy. They told you that they stole
N2.3trn, what did you do?
“Instead you are protesting ‘bring
more oil subsidy’; the oil subsidy that
is not reaching the poor. A few
individuals are going away with the
money and you have done nothing.
You are mourning Madiba, who lived
up to 95, and he was very angry with
Nigeria when he died.
“You’ve heard that $50bn is missing
and you have done nothing about it. In
some countries people will go on the
street until they return that money. It
is N8trn, it can change Nigeria.
“Me I want to steal only $1bn, let them
bring it. You read Obasanjo’s letter
and you are asking why is he writing
the letter, is he a South-South man? In
fact, when he was there what did he
do? You, what have you done? If you
don’t take your destiny in your hands,
we will go and other leaders will come
and continue stealing.”

NIGERIANS LET US ASK OURSELVES Y?
D day we can ask this question and tell ourselves d truth is d day we find progress.

I remembered reading in one of the dailies that these 37 lawmakers treatened to leave pdp if they were not given immediate pass in the next election, so what is this disguise of factional issues in pdp. They are all power mongers who are willing to do anything to retain their positions. We can't be fooled a second time. Still watching. #SEE THE CUP AS HALF FULL RATHER THAN HALF EMPTY.

In the end APC is just PDP, they just rebranded! So it is still the same enemy, but in another package, but this time he has learnt new and even more dirty tricks.

Section 68(1) provides that where A member of the Senate or of the House of Representatives shall vacate his seat in the House of which he is a member if

(g) being a person whose election to the House was sponsored by a political party, he becomes a member of another political party before the expiration of the period for which that House was elected;

THEY OUGHT TO HAVE LEFT THE HOUSE ALTOGETHER NOT JUST PDP.
WHY WOULD THEY BE DECEIVING THEMSELVES OR DONT NIGERIANS HAVE CONSTITUTION AGAIN?

Dayo Kutz said...

Their masterplan is get enough numbers together and impeach Jonathan - they only need 2/3 of the house to achieve that.

famonzo said...

We still need an alternative but strong party. I'll only say YES to APC if they can start proffering solutions to National issues and not just ranting about their party being a threat to PDP. Ain't a fan of PDP though.

Anonymous said...

Am not surprise at all, its a film am watching and its getting more n more interesting by the day. PDP is getting weaker by the day whether they like it or not, soon APC will be majority in the house and they will impeach GEJ *ThatFunctionGuy*

Unknown said...

We all had high hopes for the newly formed APC but now that they are accepting the DREGS of politicians from PDP, I wonder what to expect. APC may now become the dumping ground for failed politicians from PDP. and PDP then becomes the truely transformed Part. Tinubu watch!!!

Should I expect APC to now become the dumping ground for failed politicians from PDP, and PDP will then become the truly transformed Party? The political opportunists that ruin APP, ANPP etc. are already in APC, couple with uninvited politicians from PDP? Tinubu watch!!!

NEPA changed name to PHCN with the same people operating it and we did not have constant Power supply, now that we have new party with the same old known names should we expect anything different ( be careful with any problem that brags about changing name only)

Well, in as much as I am not against their defecting to APC, I must add that if they are really following the constituiton, then will have to vacate their seats as that is what the provision in S68(1g) states.

Nigeria's problem is not about the parties that are ruling, its about the persons and personalities in the parties. Even if they defect to 'Jesus Party', as long as they are still infused with maladministration, corruption, selfishness, nonchalance and unethical conducts, they will surely end up as antagonists due to their personal interests and the nation will continue to waddle in its present state without any significant progress.
