You deserve that empty stadium Amaechi Lashes at Jonathan.

Governor Rotimi Amaechi is not wasting time,
he has fired back through the APC in his state:
Wednesday’s re-election campaign rally in Port
Harcourt by President Goodluck Jonathan has
been described as a waste of time and an
embarrassment. Reacting to the rally, the ruling
party in the State, the APC, said the poor
attendance only served to confirm the
unpopularity of President Jonathan and his PDP
in the State, while Jonathan merely ended up
confirming APC’s claim that the President has
done nothing to deserve the votes of Rivers
people in the February 14 presidential election.
“To say that President Jonathan and his PDP
wasted their time in coming to Rivers State to
campaign is to state the obvious. The half-
empty stadium despite the renting of supporters
from Bayelsa, Delta, Abia and Akwa Ibom states
speaks volumes about Jonathan’s unpopularity
among our people,”
Rivers APC Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya,
said.
Ikanya in a statement in Port Harcourt said the
party was happy that Jonathan during the failed
rally personally confirmed that he has done
nothing for Rivers State and her people as
evidenced by his monumental neglect of the
State. He quoted Jonathan as saying: “I should
be congratulated and commended for not
developing Rivers and Bayelsa states to avoid
being accused of being biased in allocating
developments to the two States but if we are
re-elected we will now concentrate
development in these two states.”
According to Ikanya, “By this statement, we
need no further proof that it was a deliberate
act by the President Jonathan administration
not only to under-develop Rivers State but also
to ensure that the State was stagnated by
allocating our oil wells to Bayelsa, Abia and
other neighbouring states.”
Rivers APC told the President to stop dreaming
of re-election as it will never happen. The party
said: “We want to assure you, Mr. President,
that you will never be re-elected because you
have failed woefully and do not deserve any re-
election. After all that Rivers State and her
people did for you, you could be so mean not to
site one single project in Rivers State. We have
no reason for whatsoever to recommend you to
any section of this country for re-election.
“It is a pity that out of all the states President
Jonathan has visited, it is only in Rivers that he
could not name a single development project he
initiated, not to talk of executing, apart from
posting the tyrannical Police Commissioner
Joseph Mbu and supporting every imaginable
act of impunity in the State, including the plot
by five State Assembly members to impeach
the Speaker in a House of 25 members. We can
now better understand Governor Chibuike
Amaechi, who has at various fora challenged
President Jonathan to mention one single
development project he has brought to Rivers
State.”
Rivers APC vowed to intensify campaigns to
ensure that both President Jonathan and the
state PDP gubernatorial candidate, Chief
Nyesome Wike, do not get up to 10 percent of
votes to be cast in Rivers during the February
polls. “We will like to assure the entire world
that if PDP scores up to 20 percent in these
elections we will concede victory to the party,”
Ikanya said.
He congratulated Rivers people for staying at
home and allowing Mr. President to address a
half empty stadium, thereby telling him and PDP
in unmistakable terms that Rivers State is fully
and squarely an APC State.
If Mr. President and his managers knew that
Chief Wike does not exist in Rivers State
politically except in the minds of some expired
and hungry politicians looking for food to fill
their stomach and that he does not have what it
takes to mobilize enough people to fill a 50,000
seater stadium in the capacity of the Adokiye
Amiesimaka stadium they would have accepted
the Liberation Stadium as counseled by
Governor Amaechi to see if they could have
used the 15,000 supporters hired from some
neighbouring States to fill the stadium than
embarrassing the President by making him to
address an empty stadium in a Presidential
rally.

stadium Mr. President addressed the Port
Harcourt rally.
