Amaechi's efforts to re-fix party has been frustrated by Abe and co
..Says
neither Amaechi nor himself is to be blamed for the crisis
Having stumbled on a
litany of articles, press statements and commentaries not worth any response,
either sponsored by Senator Magnus Abe or authored by members of his misguided band of untamed publicists,
accusing the Minister of Transportation, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi and a party
stalwart, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze as responsible for the crisis that has
overwhelmed the Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC),
one cannot help but put the records straight for public knowledge and posterity
sake.
It is in the public
domain that Senator Abe has severally accused Chief Eze of being a hireling,
contracted by the Minister to cause discombobulation in the party and leave it
in perpetual disarray and as a result he incites his band of idiotic
intransigents and some group of hired youth to continue to malign, threaten and
abuse the party chief on daily basis.
In one of his various
interviews, Sen. Abe inciting the youths against Chief Eze stated thus...
"political mercenaries, and conflict entrepreneurs like Chief Eze, who has
no ward or polling unit in Rivers State has continually misled the Minister of
Transportation into the false belief that he was a Superman and every contrary
voice in the party must be crushed".
Furthermore, in Abe's
futile attempt to continue to disparage the personality of Chief Eze and that
of the Minister, Abe's strong ally who also serves as one of his Media Aides,
Sampson Oburu in a post recently highlighted that, " Chief Eze, You are
the problem in APC, you and your principal Amaechi. You and your Principal's
anti party is the bane of APC in Edo and Rivers State".
Reacting to the
frivolous stuff and nonsense peddled around by Sen. Abe and his agents, Chief
Eze, an erstwhile National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New People's
Democratic Party (nPDP) and chief of the APC,
posited thus "the fact remains that one very awkward and
embarrassing task any individual can venture into is to take up the
responsibility of speaking for a serial wrongdoer and political desperado who
survives in pulling others down by distorting facts to suit his style of
cocktail. The frustrations and emotional backache coupled with the overwhelming
sense of guilt and psychological trauma attached with such responsibility is in
fact, suicidal".
Describing the
allegations as lacking in basis, satanic, unsubstantiated and emanating from
the pit of hell, Chief Eze said Abe and his paid purveyors of falsehood singly
intend to distort facts and divert attention from their commercial scheme of
keeping the party in perpetual crisis in compliance with the terms of their
agreement with Gov. Wike and the People's Democratic Party.
He said he has remained
under attack on hourly basis by those who do not mean well for the party,
especially persons working with Sen. Abe. One of such nauseating texts from a
friend of Abe who exhumed the worst adjectival phrase from his grammatical
archives to describe Chief Eze reads;
"May thunder visit
Eze Chukwuemeka Eze and his family, including his generation, an ABIA STATE
MAN, paid heavily by RT HON CHIBUIKE ROTIMI AMAECHI to cause problem ROCKING or
BEDEVILING RIVERS STATE APC, God will surely punish the Biafraud peg, that
called himself Chief Eze chukwuemeka Eze. The idiot called Eze Chukwuemeka Eze
is a big disgrace to the Igbos.
Biafraud peg he
is." - AMB PRINCE IHUNWO
Eze said it is utterly
disconcerting for Sen. Abe and his friends to allege that the Transportation
Minister bankrolls his media publications and sundry actions, stressing that as
an adult, he is old enough to take responsibility for his actions and
inactions.
"Let me
categorically state that it is an insult on my person and personality at my age
and position in public to allege that the Minster and Leader of the party in
the South South, Rt. Hon. Dr. Amaechi is behind my write ups and actions".
He said holding such
opinion is simply idiotic because according to him, Sen. Abe severally made
attempts in the past to buy him over, unknown to him, a man's integrity is
worth more than silver and gold.
"If Abe and his
group can be so timid to hold this type of sinister thought and opinion about
the Minster, Abe should have tried to tell the world that he once plotted to
buy me over to his group even before I formally joined Amaechi's political Team",
he stated.
Furthermore, the party
Chief said "The fact and records were sufficiently reflected in most of my
articles in defence of Abe especially, when he (Abe) was arrested by the EFCC
in 2008 and more importantly, when Wike plotted to scuttle his Senatorial
ambition in 2015".
Chief Eze said if
exposing the wicked schemes to frustrate peace in Rivers State Chapter of the
APC is his only sin, so be it.
Stressing that he is
old enough to bear the consequences of his engagements, Eze cautioned Abe and
company to desist from shifting blames to Rt. Hon. Amaechi whom he described as
unblemished.
The party stalwart said
he had made appreciable attempts in various publications to expose how Sen. Abe
engineered the crisis in the APC which dates back to 2014, when he could not
access the gubernatorial ticket of the party.
He said Abe thereafter
swore to tear the party apart and leave it in shambles in perpetuity. No wonder
all reasonable efforts to restore peace to the party have been exercises in
futility.
"Similarly, I have
in a well articulated petition to the National Reconciliation Committee set up
by the party under the Chairmanship of His Excellency, Chief Bisi Akande,
outlined all the sins Abe and his group have visited the chapter with. Apart
from this, I have done series of articles and write-ups on how Abe denied the
party victory during the 2015 general elections and improved on his well
celebrated and historical evil plot to deny the party from contesting any
political position during the 2019 general elections, all to ensure that
Amaechi has no political platform to work upon".
It is unthinkable that
after informing the world that he is Chibuike Amaechi’s highest political
investment, Sen. Abe will turn around to be so mean and wicked to a man without
whom his political career would have ended at the Rivers State House of
Assembly.
It is on record how Abe
and his group have frustrated and ensured that all the efforts by the National
Body of APC to organise a peaceful Congresses are frustrated. For reasons only known
to him, he refused to go back to the Senate with hope of taking up the position
of the Deputy Senate President which was zoned to the South-South just to ensure that the PDP continues to
hold sway in the State. What type of party man will be so mean to his party if
he is not a tool in the hands of those who feel threatened by the rising
political profile of Chibuike Amaechi.
Today, in the eyes of
the public, APC in Rivers State is in the cooler just because a man vowed that
unless the gubernatorial ticket is handed to him there will be no APC in the
state and sadly, instead of sanctioning such character, he is motivated and
encouraged with a Board appointment with the NNPC for being so wicked and
inhumane. It is indeed unbelievable and unfortunate.
He further stated that
more shocking is the fact that some APC members who are well versed to these
facts are on daily basis blaming the Minster and leader for their woes instead
of holding responsible the man who has kept us all in this mess.
The caring party
chieftain sympathises with party members over the ravaging hunger but
reiterated that the fate of Oshiomhole awaits all those who contributed one way
or the other to the present state of APC in Rivers State.
Eze recalled thus.
"Amaechi saw all this coming our way and assembled both Senator Abe's
group and Dakuku's group in the Rivers State Government House before the 2015
general elections and pleaded with all to work together to win the elections
and that if not, it will be very difficult to sustain all members of the
political family as his going to Abuja cannot sustain everybody. Instead of adhering to this wise counsel, Abe
and his group resorted to play the spoilers script which eventually cost us the
elections.”
Eze maintained that
although Amaechi is doing his best but he is an individual and still needs the
party’s prayers and support to secure the party from the hands of those who
have vowed never to be alive to see the APC thrive.
Eze commended the two
federal Lawmakers from Rivers State who recently joined the Rivers APC; Hon.
Ephraim Nwuzi - Etche/Omuma Federal Constituency and Hon. Chisom Dike,
representing Eleme/Tai/Oyigbo Federal Constituency as well as Gov. Wike's
former Commissioner, John Bahzia.
Describing them as
brave, the party chief expressed confidence that their entrance into the APC
will contribute meaningfully to the ongoing efforts at stabilizing the party.
