  27. 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.

  39. 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.

  52. 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?

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

  55. 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.

  56. 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*

  81. 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.
