From every indications, The Rivers State governor, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, has told the people of Rivers State in particular and Nigerians in general that he knows his onion. This self claimed "rascal" has told the law court in Port Harcourt that he has been a law maker for 8 years and just a law maker but a distinguished one as he flaunts the orders of the lower court with impunity.
If you can still recall, this man of a governor some days ago pitched his tent against his birthplace in politics as he formed a merger with APC and now he is at a legal war with the law again.
Amaechi has been having issues with the government of Obio-Akpor LGA for a while now but this time it has escalated to the level that the law court has been invented to address the issue. The court in her capacity ordered the return of the LGA boss, Hon. Timothy Nsirim, to his place of work but the Rivers State government says otherwise.
This is an extract from the announcement made by Gov. Rotimi Amaechi through his SSG:
Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, the Governor of Rivers State, in exercise of the powers conferred on him by the Rivers State Local Government Law 2012, has approved the dissolution of the Obio/Akpor Local Government Council with effect from today, the 28th of Nov, 2013.
Consequently, the chairman of Obio/Akpor Local Govt Council is hereby directed to hand over to the Head of Personnel Management of the Council immediately.
Sign: George D. N. Feyii,
Secretary to the Rivers State Govt.
According to a statement made by the embattled L.G.A Boss, on Rhythm 93.7FM news this morning, "I will obey the ruling of the court" and "I will resume work today".
We are begging you people in the name of God to stop this fight...remember, we the elephants fight, the grasses are the ones who recount their losses...right from my youth, "Clash of the Titans" has never been my best movie!
