“Why Amaechi Is Angry & Criticizes Me” – Wike

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, has said his predecessor, Rotimi Amaechi, is angry with him because of his nickname “Mr. Project.”

Wike made the remark while reacting to statement by Amaechi, who criticized the title “Mr. Project” ascribed to him.

Speaking in Port Harcourt, the state capital, on Monday, the governor described Amaechi’s alleged criticism on projects and programmes across the state as unfortunate, saying, “It is unfortunate that someone who was celebrating his 52nd birthday would tell Rivers people what is not correct.”

He pointed out that it was wrong for Amaechi to compare his eight years as governor to the two years he has spent so far.

The governor also charged Amaechi to allow those aspiring to be governor in the state to express themselves because he, Amaechi, could not be governor again.

Wike noted that his administration had remained focused and would continue to deliver projects that would improve the living condition of the people.

He said, “His (Amaechi) anger is that I have been given the name, Mr. Project. I came to serve the people. You are comparing your eight years with my two years.

“Anybody aspiring to be governor should be allowed to tell Rivers people what he wants to do. You (Amaechi) cannot be governor again.”
