Gov<br/>Amaechi said this yesterday October 24th at<br/>the graduation ceremony of the Pioneer<br/>graduands of the Ignatus Ajuru University of<br/>Education held at Rumuolumeni in Rivers<br/>state. He said<br/>"Remember, when I became governor, I fought<br/>militancy. Right there where you built a new<br/>house used to be a hole where they pass into<br/>the river nd escape. The security report<br/>reached me and I came here and chased the<br/>militants away. I asked them to fence the<br/>school premises and block the hole. I have to<br/>protect you because it is my responsibility.<br/>Some of the militants went to Lagos, Ivory<br/>Coast, Ghana etc. Today, they are back<br/>because the wife of the President bought<br/>them back to protest against me." Continue...<br/>I refused to give them money in Abuja<br/>because if I do that, I won't be able to carry<br/>out any developmental projects or finish the<br/>road from Rumuolumeni to Rumuepirikom.<br/>The quarel between me and the wife of the<br/>Preseident is because she said I should bring<br/>your money, Rivers peoples money and share<br/>with her" Governor Amaechi alleges<br/>Governor Amaechi is also quoted to have told<br/>the graduands that should they vote for<br/>President Jonathan back into power in next<br/>year's general elections, rivers state's<br/>economy would crumble<br/>"Now that you are graduates, you are eligible<br/>voters that can use your voters card to<br/>change society. Ask yourself this question<br/>that I have always asked Rivers people. What<br/>have we (Rivers people) done to President<br/>Jonathan that he has refused to bring any<br/>project to Rivers state. We had to fight them<br/>before they could do the East-West road. I<br/>had to abuse the federal government and<br/>they abused me back before they could do<br/>the work you now see on that road. Our<br/>President, from the South-South, has taken<br/>oil wells from Soku in Rivers state to Bayelsa<br/>state. What about the 41 oil wells in Etche<br/>that was given to Abia state? Is the President<br/>or his wife from Abia? Why do they want us<br/>to suffer? If President Jonathan comes back<br/>to power in 2015, Rivers state economy will<br/>crash" he said<br/>Source: AIT
