Amaechi will pay for his attack on Jonathan, First Lady –Evans Bipi

The self-acclaimed Speaker of the Rivers State House of As­sembly, Evans Bipi, has vowed that Governor Chibuike Amaechi would pay for his attack on Presi­dent Goodluck Jonathan and his wife, Dame Patience, im­mediately he leaves office.

Bipi told journalists in Port Harcourt, yesterday, that Amaechi had been taking ad­vantage of his immunity to disparage Jonathan and his wife indiscriminately.
“It is regrettable that Rotimi Amaechi has consistently in­sulted and disparaged a sitting President and his wife with impunity in abuse of his im­munity as a governor.
We feel pained that we are constrained to take necessary action against him because of the immunity, which he en­joys.
“In less than eight months from now, Amaechi will be made to answer for all his ac­tions against President Good­luck Jonathan and his wife, Dame Patience Jonathan.”
He vowed: “Wherever Amaechi likes, let him run to after his tenure as governor; we must surely get him to answer for all his libelous ut­terances, rascality and incit­ing public disorder against the president and his wife.”
Bipi, who is the leader of the anti-Amaechi lawmak­ers of the state House of As­sembly and coordinator of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) caucus, Wakirike ex­traction, accused the governor of squandering N19 billion to organise the recent All Pro­gressives Congress (APC) rally in the state.
Also, he debunked the gov­ernor’s allegation that the First Lady, Dame Jonathan, wanted him to share the resources of the state with her and chal­lenged Amaechi to prove his claims.
He said: “We also challenge Governor Amaechi to prove his allegation that the First Lady sent ex-militants to stage protest against him for refus­ing to share Rivers money with her. These allegations by the governor are false and baseless.”
The lawmaker represent­ing Ogu/Bolo Constituency alleged that Amaechi’s wife, Dame Judith, collected N36 million meant for constituency projects for her pet project.
He, however, urged the gov­ernor’s kinsmen to call him to order against further attack on the president and his wife, as failure to heed to the warning, would have unfavourable con­sequences...post by expdonaloaded
