Wike Is A Thug And Unfit To Be Governor – Amaechi,

SAN FRANCISCO, November 13, (THEWILL) – The Minister of Transportation and former Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, has described the Governor, Nyesom Wike, has a thug who is unfit to be called a governor.

Speaking at a rally in Bera, Gokana local government area, the hometown of the All Progressive Congress (APC) Rivers South East Senatorial candidate, Magnus Abe, Amaechi vowed to resist any form of intimidation and threat from any quarters in the December 10 Rivers rerun.

He declared that the APC cannot afford to lose any seat in the senatorial district, especially the four Ogoni councils of Khana, Gokana, Eleme and Tai promising that the APC will match whatever antics and strategies deployed by the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Governor during the exercise.

“If there is one place APC that shouldn't campaign, it is Ogoniland but Wike said he must win here,” he said.

“It is not as if he is God. Only God can say that but since he is not God, he will fail.

“Wike can never be God. The battle is not in Ogoniland but in the Ikwerre and Ahoada axis.

“So he had better forget here (Ogoniland). He said he will deploy everything.

“Anything he wants to deploy let him deploy, we will deploy our own.

“Do not behave like democrats who went to sleep. Come out and vote.

“The past elections, we took security for granted. This time, we will not take security for granted.

“If Wike likes, let him come out. At all times he had come out I used to ask does this man remember that he is a governor?

“It is only a thug that can stand in front of a Judge's gate to be struggling with security men, only a thug.

“A governor will go back to his house and call the President. When SSS invaded the presidential lounge of Akwa Ibom state government, what the governor did was to call the President.

“Instead of Wike to call the President, he was struggling with security men.

“In all the fight I had with the federal government under former President Jonathan, nobody saw me physically battling with anybody.

“When I became governor, there were many people appointed by Dr. Peter Odili.

“There were so many businesses by Odili people. I didn't stop any. Wike is indeed a thug, not a governor.

“He doesn't know what it takes to govern. The only way to show him that is in this election.

“After this election, he will not come this way again.”

“I will urge all of you if anybody threaten you, please threaten back because all Wike does is to come on the radio and you are scared.

“What are you scared of? 'Oh they are rigging, oh I will you kill John,' 'I will kill you this and that'. He will kill nobody.

“Wike ran away when armed robbers came to attack him at Garrison sometimes back, meaning that he loves his life. He loves live and is killing people.”
