Governor Amaechi under fire for organizing Governance Conference
Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State has come under heavy attacks for recently organizing an international conference on good governance and democracy in Rivers state.
The Director-General of the Peoples Democratic Party in Rivers State, Emma Woke, while describing the conference as a waste of resources, said Amaechi had failed to practise what he preached and should be totally ignored.
The party chieftain on Wednesday said the conference was another avenue the state Governor was using to cover up his inability to account for the trillions of naira he had received since he assumed office.
According to him, “Amaechi’s penchant in wasting the resources of the state to organise frivolous seminars and conferences is just to justify the trillions of naira he has received so far since he became governor by judicial circumstances in 2007.
“One will not stop to wonder the kind of good governance the likes of Amaechi is talking about; is it to cast aspersion on a party platform through which he became a governor in 2007 and 2011?
“Is Amaechi’s good governance to divert the state’s billions of naira to fund a party that was his opposition in the past seven and half years when he was in PDP?
“Amaechi should be man enough to tell his friends, the former British Prime Minister, Jack Straw; and the former Irish PM, John Bruton, that he is a fair weather politician who left his former party, PDP, because the internal democracy of the party forbade him from being dictatorial,” he said.
