ONLINE REACTIONS Rivers govt accuses Amaechi of embezzling N3trn

Ithink this man said Rivers State government, should take him to court. Why haven’t the state government done that? We are tired of newspaper propaganda. Now that election is coming the government is coming with another propaganda. If you do not want to go to court, don't tell us anything again.

Technology as a tool is powerful in any hand and we expect a commissioner to be able to document facts for his people and the nation to see. Pictures of abandoned projects could be taken or videotaped for every citizen to see. Non-physical ones could be documented; contracts date, project amount and how much spent or not spent, etc. The problem of that part of the country could be liken to the problem of Nigeria; bad leadership. It is unfortunate for that Niger Delta to be one of the least developed parts of the country with lots of money going into the state coffer.

Previous governors have been involved in series of corrupt practices; one was impeached and others sent to jail. If these people could not take care of themselves and their people, who is going to do it for them? The NDA is fighting for the control of oil wells - what difference is this going to make on the development of the area? When their socalled big men and past and present governors could not successfully manage 13% derivation monthly allocation for more than 17 years now; how would having the wells make any difference? Until the citizen in that area start to question their representatives on what is coming to the area and what was spent, no development will be seen anytime soon. Omooba A. omifunfun66@yahoo.com
