Those Empowered By Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi Were Just Not Appreciative – Says APC Chieftain

Eze, in a statement issued in Port Harcourt, said that those empowered by the current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and immediate past Rivers State governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, are people who show gratitude.

He stated that it was wrong to compare Amaechi’s empowerment with that of Wike as only the appointments into the Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) and the Nigeria Ports Authority (NPA) dwarf all appointments so far influenced by the current FCT Minister.

He said, “Both are empowerment machines. The only difference is that those empowered by Amaechi were not as appreciative as those empowered by Wike”.

“This notwithstanding, comparing the level of empowerment as done by Amaechi to that of Wike is like comparing River Niger with Ntawogba Creek in Port Harcourt.”

“Appointments in NIMASA and NPA alone dwarf all current appointments influenced by Wike and when you add the appointments of a Federal University Vice Chancellor or a University Teaching Hospital Chief Medical Director (CMD), you can come to the realization that Wike’s appointments are mere boy-boy appointments.”

“So, asking me to consider how Wike is empowering his supporters proves how myopic humans can be some times because most of the appointments so far Influenced by Wike are mere messengers and security guards to most of the appointments Amaechi made.”
