Why Jonathan and His Wife Are After Me ––Governor Amaechi Bares It All

Rivers State Governor Rotimi Amaechi has finally opened up; he accused President Goodluck Jonathan of turning the PDP into a “one-man show” and of condoning “impunity and authoritarianism” in an effort to ensure his re-election in 2015 at all cost...


Amaechi, in an interview he granted the Financial Times of London, added that the President and his wife, Patience, were bent on removing him from office.

He traced his travails to the fear in the Presidency that whoever was in charge of Nigeria Governor’s Forum had the capacity to influence the presidential election in 2015.

The governor said, “There is this fear in the Presidential Villa that whoever chairs the Governors’ Forum will influence the presidential election,” Amaechi told FT in Port Harcourt on Tuesday.

In a report posted by FT on Sunday, he alleged that “What has happened has been engineered to the point where the President and his wife are trying to remove me from office.”

“We are seeing an absence of law and order that can breed anarchy. It seems those at Federal Government level are not interested in democracy, but impunity and authoritarianism. The President needs to check this,” the governor added.

Amaechi also told the FT that he had not decided on his plans for 2015. He said that efforts by some in the PDP leadership to claim that he had lost the governors’ forum vote, despite him obtaining 19 votes to his challenger’s (Jonah Jang of Plateau State) 16, was a concerning sign ahead of 2015.

“If they can accept 16 over 19, people should be worried,” he said.
