Politics everyone believes is a game of permanent interest,and no permanent enemy,but there are some who are of the view that the scar,damage,injuries and pains inflicted by a long time enemity may mot be easily healed,unless something beyond ordinary happens.
Who could have believed that Barr.Nyesom Wike,a man whose wife was made a Judge in Rivers State could pilot the sheep that nearly destroyed the personality of Chubike Rotimi Amaechi,who could have believed that Nyesom Wike,a man who benefited all during the first and even the second tenure of Amaechi could present himself as the veritable ally and stooge to destroy Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi?.
Wike Choosed the funfare of Mrs.Jonathan,than to march like a man to his dream seat of becoming the governor of Rivers State,he generated all the men and women in opposition Party at the build up to the general election in Rivers State,gathered ex-militants and armed them with guns .
The First executed mission was forcing Amaechi out from the PDP,A can of lies was opened for a humble man who since the history of Rivers State built a 24 Model Secondary that can even be taken to a Modern day University in the World,a man who abolished a popular Ikwerre Mantra(Marching Fee) a practice that makes is possible for a land which has been sold to be re-sold over and over again,a man uwho suffered humiliation under the watchful eyes of Jonathan,who reduced the state allocation from N20Billion to N13Billion in a bid to finally punish and silence Amaechi.
Wike hatched a plot which succeeded and the Rivers State owned aircraft was grounded by the agents of the Federal Government under flimsy excuse that that the purchase did not follow due process,an excuse that did not hold water,but already the aircraft had been grounded for over a year,all these and many i may not remember was executed by the sitting Governor Of Rivers State under the node of Patience Faka Jonathan,the first Nigerians Firstlady who abused the North,because of her Desperation to remain relevance and for her husband who couldn’t do anything For Rivers People in his 6yrs as President to remain in power.
Dakuku!!!!!!!!! Many may get hurt,when ever a change wants to occur,but the Result is beneficial to and who struggled for that change. You stood by Amaechi even when fears gripped you due to the powers allocated to Nyesom Wike during the build up to the general elections,even those you helped to come up politically were used to fight you in a bid to also ensure you were destroyed.
In fact ,it was not news that Wike openly boasted that he is not contesting election with you,but with Rotimi Amaechi because he sees you as nothing to worry about,he encouraged his political group to ensure that anyone who dare challenges them,that are members of the APC must be dealt with,that was what we saw in Rivers State,lives,properties,families and children were completely destroyed,opposition politicians were arrested because the powers that be vowed to deal with you and your Leader.
Nyesom Wike’s antecedents of releasing huge amount of money to get what he likes,must not be joked with,30B Naira has been borrowed on excuse of operation Zero potholes,but we all know were that money has been enmarked and what the money was borrowed for,beyond the money,”Wike is sound on the other Side”.
No one should argue with Chief Wike when he say he can get anything he likes because he showed it again when he brought Bro.Felix Obuah who never contested the PDP Chairmanship election in Rivers and secured a court ruling sacking Chief Godspower Ake,who was duely elected during the party’s election in Rivers State,he showed that Power when AIG Tunde Ogunsaki was asked by the Former President Jonathan to vacate Rivers State barely 24hrs he was deployed in the state.
After arsenal’s and gunpowder’s were used for him,he made it to the brick house under the supervision of Jonathan’s cousin(Dame Gesilah Khan) the protest by APC could not change anything,the press conferences did not work,because a power that was at that time had vowed to ensure Wike made it to the Rivers Government House.Oh Yeah!!He made in in a dangerous manner.
Dr.Dakuku Peterside,that war is not a war of words,but a battle that is beyond emotion,it is a battle that requires a spiritual commitment,it is a battle that requires dedication,it is a battle that requires resources,but above all, there is the need for your two neels to go down in the presence of the almighty God,because all powers belongs and respects him.
The change may not be complete until Rivers State is rescued from the hands of those who destroyed it because of their selfish ambition and interest.
Sir,the battle ahead is not easy,how prepared are you?
