Rivers Politics: Wike, others drop Jonathan’s name to cause trouble for Amaechi
Rivers Peoples Forum, a socio-political group, has accused Chief Nyesom Wike, the Supervising Minister of Education, and the State’s Chairman of the Peoples Democratic, 
PDP, Felix Obuah of dropping President Goodluck Jonathan’s name for selfish political gains.
According a statement made available to NigerianEcho, signed by its President, Charles Bekwele , the group alleged that Obuah has made himself a servant to Wike a situation the group described as pathetic.
“It is important to note that this Obuah character is a lackey and domestic servant of Minister of State for Education Nyesom Wike. Wike, an erstwhile protégé and boy of Governor Amaechi who was nominated to the ministerial position by the Governor has now made discrediting and running down Amaechi his biggest life mission.
“The Rivers’ Peoples Forum, RPF, an umbrella body of all Rivers people both at home and in diaspora, over the months has watched with disgust the scurrilous comments and statements of Wike, Obuah and Wike’s other lackeys who persistently assail the person and office of the Governor of Rivers State under the pretensions of defending and fighting for President Goodluck Jonathan and his dear wife, our lovely, beautiful sister Patience.
“In reality, Nyesom Wike, Felix Obuah and their co-travellers by their actions and statements are hell-bent on destroying the office of the President of the country and dragging the name of its present occupant and his wife through the mud. Their penchant for always dragging the name of President Jonathan and his wife into their petty war of attrition against Governor Amaechi is tantamount to rubbishing President Jonathan in a most brutal and crude manner and a vicious humiliation, disrespect and bastardization of the office of the President”.
Bekwele said Wike and his group lacked the political will to stand the Rivers State Governor, Chibuike Amaechi, adding that the reason Wike is acting the demonic script was simply for the treasury of the state.
“It’s an open secret that Wike and his cohorts have always invoked the name of President Jonathan and his wife, Patience, who they fondly call ‘mummy’ in their ‘war’ against Governor Amaechi. Because they completely lack the political clout, strength and followership to stand against the governor.
“Nyesom Wike and co are characters who are known in Rivers State to be inherently corrupt and bereft of any known values. Their aim and only goal is to have access to, and steal blindly the collective wealth of Rivers people. Their dark and insidious antecedents are well known to Rivers people.
“These are characters who can’t even win elections in their wards or deliver their wards in any election. We are waiting for them at the polls, where we shall punish them with our votes. We advise Governor Amaechi to ignore these traitors and expired politicians, not to be distracted and remain focused on delivering the dividends of democracy to Rivers people”, the group concluded
