Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, was a guest on AIT’s flagship programme: Focus Nigeria, where he recommended those looking for to find goodness or morality in politics and governance to seek the way of churches instead. He talked about a lot of things including his doubts about President Jonathan.

Amaechi while expressing his doubts with President Goodluck Jonathan said, “I respect the president as a person. He is a gentle man, he is a good man but there is no morality in governance. There is no goodness in governance. If you want to be moral or want to be a good man, go to church. Right there when it comes to governance, it’s about the people. It is about delivering to the people. It is about competence. It is about your ability to perform.

Amaechi compared the strategies used by the pro-Jonathan campaign group, Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria, (TAN), with what got during the debated election of the Nigeria Governor’s Forum.

“They are getting how many signatures? 17million? They got 17million Nigerians to sign to vote. That’s how they voted for governors’ forum. They say everybody sign for governor’s forum. Sign to vote,” he said.

He called Nigerians to watch History to see the likeness between TAN’s valuation of signatures for Jonathan’s candidacy, how the governors’ forum voting went as well as compare the use of the military under Abacha and how the President is using the military against citizens, he asserted.

It would be recalled that recently Amaechi blamed Jonathan and his administration of fiasco to implement the projects initiated by the governor, of encouraging corruption. Moreover, the politician insisted that his problems with Dame Patience started when he refused to share “Rivers peoples money” with her.

President Goodluck Jonathan and First Lady Patience Jonathan immediately reacted to his accusations.
