I am one of Amechi's legacy. The scholarship program is what saw me through school. I am so grateful

@estherallison9090 6 ай бұрын

His selfcontrol. He's ability to remain quiet amidst political noises especially from wike. His eloquence, oratory. I love him. He was more humanitarian in Rivers government than others. His humility again to be in school.

Mr. Amaechi if you don't want any questions on political issues then we are not interested in your private matters or what you do in your closet with family. You came to limelight through political platform and therefore duty bound to provide us information on your political journey otherwise stop coming to public space.

Even though I like Rotimi as a person, I keep wondering what he did to the most economically & business minded zone of the country. In all he mentioned, south east was never in his picture and yet people from this region are the ones holding the economy of the country. I don't understand this and we demand explanation from Mr Rotimi.

They're always reasonable after leaving office. But their irresponsibility stinks to high heavens when they are in office. I like his personality, especially his being blunt with truth. But he has the spirit of Ekwekwe. Always fighting every fight to a finish. That's not a good one for me. And also Support and political patronage to his irresponsible, nepotistic and incompetent former boss Buhari robbed him off so much. Wasting so much of Rivers money to support Buhari, moving Maritime University to Daura, and most unfortunate in the list is Neglecting entire Southeast in his Rail line projects is unforgivable for me. But in terms of personality, I like him.

No one is perfect but ROTIMI AMAECHI is a model leader with class. He understands that there is time for everything as such it's too earlier to talk politics. He has position himself in Nigeria such a way that both current Government and past both opposition patties respect his weight of command in politics. He has been the best speaker during his time, best Governor of Rivers state, he growed economy of Rivers state almost have same annual budget with Lagos state during his time. The both state budgets are there in google, he tried so much. Since then Rivers never see there budget any longer in 8yrs of Gov. Wike but the Current Governor just did 800 billion. Amaechi is a good man!

Kudos to Rotimi Amaechi. He completed the first metroline project in Nigeria - with the building of the Abuja metroline at a modest cost of $4b. He showed Tinubu and other Nigerian politicians that a new Nigeria is possible. It is crazy that while Amaechi finished the modern Abuja metroline project with a modest $4b, what is being quoted as cost for the Lagos metroline project is in the realm of hundreds of billions of dollars😄. We need people like Amaechi in government

I never liked nor forgotten the role Rotimi Amaechi played during GEJ’S 2nd term bid in 2015. But having said that he’s frankly and honestly blunt. He performed creditably well during his time as the speaker of the house of Assembly and subsequently Governor of Rivers States but failed in attracting any Federal government presence in his region and the south east geopolitical zone

Thank God you are honest, but are faithful as a steward? Making Heaven is a good goal, the lyrics of the song Money is nothing means you think in that light, its seems you are not far from the truth, like Christ told someone in the Bible, Mr. Amaechi, moi moi sold at 1 Naira per serving, to 10M Nigerians, wow 10M Naira gross revenue. Now tell us the cost of producing plenty moi moi to serve 10M. Certainly it will be greater than 10M Naira. Considering cost of beans, cost gas or even fire wood, transport, then paying servers. So forget that gist. On the other note, this about the 2nd time I hear you say same thing, Nigerians get what they get & do nothing about it, u restrained yourself very well from saying it blunter. Just like one of your viral videos where u stated that the reason u politicians keep looting is because we the Nigerian people have done nothing about it, u even stated u just want to steal $3B , wondering if you have achieved the goal of stealing $3B or are u still working on it. According to my calculations, u pursuing law degrees is not so u can go do charge and bail. It appears u want to be a judge or magistrate, so we go keep watching your every move. When you finally achieve your goal, it will give u the opportunity of writing the final page of how you wish to be remembered, DO NOT MESS IT UP!

@@andosehcampbel5701this means you didn’t know what happened, GEJ and ameachi had a political fight, this had nothing to do with him becoming vice, Ameachi fought for his life, this fight was caused by wike joining dem together so he can become governor , now he is doing the same thing with the current governor and the president tinubu and nobody is seeing this, when Jonathan and PDP expelled Ameachi nobody said Jonathan was fighting his brother, all his security withdrawn, Dey also imposed the den commissioner Joseph mbu to fight him. Even you will not take this.

@andosehcampbel5701 6 ай бұрын

@@Visa-Voyage Honestly, you don't know what really happened. Amaechi, right from the time he was serving as speaker of River State House of Assembly said clearly that his ambition was to become the president of Nigeria. Wike had exactly the same ambition. They were very good friends before and MEMBERS of the secret society. Don't let anybody deceive you. What you saw in 2015 was just the surface. So, Amaechi thought the time was ripe for him to aspire to become first Vice President in order to complete the two terms of the Niger Delta in Aso Rock, based on the Adamawa agreement between Jonathan and PDP leaders from the North that he was not going to contest in 2015. That was in the build up to 2011 elections. Amaechi left PDP in 2013 by November, only when he realized that Jonathan was going to contest for second term, situation that would have put his ambition in jeopardy. Exactly, the same thing is happening now with Wike. He wants to be President of Nigeria and he is obsessed with that his ambition. That's why he was desperate to be the vice of Atiku. Now, his plan is to support and rally support for Tinubu in 2027 so that Tinubu as recompense will support him in 2031 to become the vice president when a Northener will emerge as president. That's the game. Even Amaechi has not dropped his ambition but he is more calculative. My dear brother, that's the Nigerian politician. They think long ahead of us.

By telling lies always? Sacrilege! This is someone who said Dr Jonathan had a "Killer Squad" that was targeting him, El Rural, Tinubu, Buhari, etc. He knew it was a big LIE but he pushed that narrative because he was desperate to become vice president of Nigeria from 2015. Where is he today? Even in Rivers, he is almost a nobody now. Wicked Wike has outmarted him. Such is life. All those courses he is enrolling for are just evidence that he is idle.
