Ogoni Day: How Amaechi was booed, jeered by Ogoni People

Amaechi

Thousands of Ogoni people on Saturday, January 4, 2014 at BMGS,
Bori, venue of this year's Ogoni Day celebration booed and jeered at
the Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi who was represented by
Senator Magnus Abe.

The large crowd became irate when Senator Magnus Abe mounted the
rostrum and announced that he was speaking on behalf of the Governor,
Rotimi Amaechi.

Senator Magnus Abe was not allowed to speak to the hearing of the
people as thousands of ogoni people became angry and spontaneously
booed and jeered at him.



Ogoni people were visibly angry over Governor Amaechi's illegal land
grabbing in Ogoni land, unfilled promises to the people, misrule,
human rights abuses in Ogoni land, killings, mismanagement of tax
payers money, defecting to APC without recourse to the people,
personalisation of Rivers Resources, throwing the State in crises,
crisis rocking the Rivers State House of Assembly, refusal to appoint
a substantive Chief judge as recommended by the NJC, abandonment of
projects in Ogoni etc.

Senator Magnus Abe's revelation that Amaechi has approved the
renovation of Bori General Hospital, Bori and the contractor mobilized
didn't also helped matters as the people continued to booed and jeered
at him.

Senator Magnus Abe witnessing a worst type of shame in Ogoni land,
stepped down from the rostrum and couldn't look up, apparently hiding
his face in shame.
The PDP commends the Ogoni people for once again rejecting Governor
Rotimi Amaechi on Ogoni soil.

The party calls on Amaechi to see his rejection in Ogoni land today as
a sign of his total rejection by Rivers people.

The PDP apologises to the Ogoni people for the choice of Rotimi
Amaechi as governor in 2011, assuring that in future elections
Amaechi, his APC and all those associated with him MUST be voted out.
