The group unequivocally condemned what it
described as Amaechi’s deceptive design to lure the teeming unemployed people
who have been deliberately frustrated by bad system of governance under him
(Amaechi), stressing that if the Governor actually intended to offer genuine
employment to Rivers people, he should do so without tossing them up and down
for this long period.
The Rivers Integrity Group in its statement issued
in Port Harcourt through its coordinator, Comrade Joseph Peter Chukwu, wondered
why 13 thousand persons will be invited to converge at the Liberation
Stadium to personally collect their
appointment letters when both the interview and training were done through the
internet which recorded relative success in the process.
The group believed that Amaechi’s action has
continually created an atmosphere of disorder and insecurity, giving the
impression that the police in the state is incompetent.
The group observed that it is strange for Amaechi
to claim that he gathered 13,000 persons at the Liberation Stadium just to give
them posting “employment” letter given the logistic difficulties. The group therefore has no difficulties to
believe the story making the rounds that Amaechi actually arranged the
gathering to stage a protest against the Federal Government claiming that he
was shortchanged in August Allocation and that he is against President
Jonathan. If not so how will one explain
the placards said to have been found on some of the so called teachers
(protesters) carrying the inscription: “Jonathan
leave Amaechi alone”; “we support
Kawu Bareje New PDP”.
The Integrity Group commended the police for quick
intervention to forestall the breakdown of law and order in the state, warning
Amaechi and those he is using to foment trouble to stop exposing innocent
Rivers people to danger in order to achieve his selfish interest.
