Outrageous: Amaechi Blew Rivers State N5Billion To Wrestle ACP VP Slot From Fashola




From been the Personal Assistant (PA) to the former governor of Rivers State,  Dr. Peter Odili to Speaker Rivers State House of Assembly and now Governor of Rivers State, Governor Chuibike Amaechi has secured himself and can now attack anyone (including President Goodluck Jonathan and his wife) who dares to be an obstacle in his desperate quest for more political powers. Call that ambition. Yes! Amaechi is very ambitious, but what The Gist Plus Magazine is to allegedly waste N5 billion just to lobby for vice presidential slot is very outrageous!

Few months ago, report had it how Amaechi shared N300 million to selected “Bloggers” otherwise known as Cashivists during #TheAmaechiIknow. He has also allegedly put aside over N30 billion for this ‘special project.’ No thanks to the recent approval of N19 billion by the State House of Assembly to be withdrawn from the State reserve.

Many people that attended the All Progressive People (APC) mega rally held at Adokiye Ameisima stadium of Greater Port Harcourt City on the October 25, 2014, thought that it was actually to celebrate the seventh anniversary of the historic Supreme Court verdict in 2007 that enthroned Amaechi as the authentic and duly elected Governor of River State. That was just a front. An APC Chieftain’s aides – who doesn’t want his name in print, The Gist Plus Magazine gathered that, the rally was meant to show APC stalwarts, Specially Tinubu that Amaechi can pull the needed South-south and Southeast votes if given the vice presidential slot, so as to edge out the preferred candidate, Governor Babatunde Fashola for the position.

If you don’t know, the South-West governors and other members led by Governor Adams Oshomole, who support Fashola’s VP candidature, shunned the rally.
