AMAECHI VS. WIKE- TIME TO GROW UP!

One was the former Governor and now a Minister of the Federal Government, an important minister at that, with a massive portfolio. The other is the incumbent Governor of the same State, Rivers State.

Both used to be friends, with the current Governor being a prodigy of the former until they fell out, both now in different parties and avowed sworn enemies.

The story of the clash between the 2, very recently again, which could have led to bloodshed, had both sides not employed restraint is one that has enjoyed so much buzz.

Why both leaders, elders, fathers and husbands, cannot sheathe their forever drawn swords and allow peace to reign baffles us? Is it that their wives cannot talk to them to stop the nonsense? Is it that the kids cannot tell their daddies off, that you both should go and rest? Are there not elders in town, who can talk to both parties?

What is it that both are fighting for in the first place or have been fighting for, that they are both bent on embarrassing, disgracing, annihilating, witch-hunting, eviscerating each other? What is this battle of egos all about? Or is it far more than meets the eye?

Okay one has lost, and one has won, 4 years is not eternity, and is about finishing and another opportunity to test your popularities would soon come again, why the need to threaten each other needlessly all the time?

And the bad aspect of the whole imbroglio, is that while nothing would happen to both Amaechi and Wike and their very close family members, as they are too high up there and too cocoon to be touched, it is some over eager idiots and fools in the name of sworn and die-hard supporters/fans and even security details that would stretch out their necks and same would be cut off without a care in the world! All of the nonsense only for them to be mourned for 5 minutes and thereafter they are forgotten!

Let's even just try to imagine the ugly scenario, so what if one trigger happy security detail in the midst of the hoopla and rising temperature by mistake pulls the trigger, and everyone then responds!!!!!

Dear sirs, as adults, grown ups, leaders of the nation, those with responsibilities, and whom very much is expected of, there are developmental tasks expected of you both, that these unbridled energy and enthusiasm can be poured on. This foolish battle of egos, is just unneccesarily distracting from better things!

Please, GROW UP!

DUNCAN MIGHTY

GOVERNOR ROTIMI AMAECHI

Hmmmmmm!!! What in the world seems to be going on? The Executive Governor of Rivers State, His Excellency Hon. Rotimi Amaechi is seemingly in the eye of storm from all sides. Not only is he facing a battle on the political front that has kept him on his toes for a while now, there's has been sundry accusations from left, right and centre and the latest of this full frontal war is this accusation of reneging on an agreement by well known musician Duncan Mighty. Who in order to get a response from His Excellency, has thought to let the whole world know what went down. Would this expose help solve the matter? Let's wait and see.

CALL TO GOVERNOR AMAECHI TO PAY ME FOR SERVICES RENDERED TO HIM AND HIS GOVERNMENT. FRIENDS NOW CALL ME A TRAITOR/SABOTEUR.………DUNCAN MIGHTY

"It is on record that on the 30th of March 2011, I, Mr. Okechukwu Duncan Mighty single handedly organized a Celebrity Youth Endorsement Concert in Port Harcourt where I successfully endorsed over 18,000 youths who are eligible voters for the Governor Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi
During the organization of the event under the express approval of the Governor of Rivers State and his cabinet, he gave me the sum of Ten Million Naira through the then secretary to the state Govt. Senator Magnus Abe which totally went into the project. The Governor also gave me his word that the balance of Fifty Million Naira will be paid to me as soon as possible.

In pursuit of the said project, I thereafter raised funds through different sources including personal savings, loans and credit facilities, acquired operational vehicles and branded them for the project, procured several souvenirs, printed many publicity materials, paid for venues, engaged musicians from different parts of the country, undertook logistics such as flight/Accommodation/Transportation and welfare.

SCINTILLATING 50TH BIRTHDAY OF THE ICONIC RUTH OSIME. WHERE AT LEAST 3 SITTING GOVERNORS WERE PRESENT

GOVERNOR BABATUNDE FASHOLA, RUTH'S MOM & RUTH OSIME

RUTH OSIME

SONNIE AYERE, GRACE OSIME, RUTH, HER MOM & OMOME

.......LET'S GROOVE TONITE

You all already know that the This Day Style Editor, Ms. Ruth Osime clocked the big 5-0 last week Friday, February 7, 2014. And to celebrate her Jubilee year, she invited friends, family members, staff members and more to a classy shindig that held at the Red Carpet Hall, in Lekki Area on the Island. To have 3 sitting Governors of powerful states in Nigeria at your birthday is no joke at all, supported by at least 2 first ladies- Dame Abimbola Fashola & Mrs. Obioma Liyel Imoke of Cross Rivers.


To show that she's a jolly good 'fellow' or should we use 'chapess', people from all over came to celebrate our very dear own ''Anna Wintour''. Like we had said before or predicted before, it was a who-is-who gathering, made up of the young, the young at heart, and some not so young ones. 

Some of those that we saw at the party were the likes of Governors Babatunde Fashola of Lagos, Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers & Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta. Others were the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt Hon. Chukwuemeka Ihedioha,  Senator Daisy Danjuma, the gorgeous mom of the birthday gal, her younger siblings Grace Osime & Omome, Ebony Life TV MD Mo Abudu, Sonnie & Betty Irabor, Esosa Anenih, Pastor Tony Rapu of TPH, Senator Florence Ita-Giwa, Willie & Nkiru Anumudu, Vivienne Chioloji, Akin Olopade of Afromedia, UBA director Celine Loader, Debbie Oghene, Kehinde Ebie, Nina & Muka, Segun Sebanjo, Ngozi Onu, Sonnie Ayere, Sola Oduwole, Gbemi Shasore, Mojoyin Dekalu-Thomas, Peter & Olu Adegbeyi, Femi & Aima Lijadu, Moji Akinsanya, Adeola Adewunmi, Yetunde Allen, Fola & Lanre Ogunlesi, Ndidi Obioha, Owen & Elohor Aisien, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, Folake Folarin-Coker, Chalya Shagaya, Veronica Ebie-Odeka, Lanre Da Silva Ajayi, Jumoke Adegbenro, Lara Rawa & very many others. 

From the little report we got, it was a first class shindig all the way, so much to drink & munch, with good music blasting all the way, making many still believe they are still very young. So much fun was it that we had people were still there till the wee hours of the morning. It was also a fashion fest sort of for the ladies, all looking good for the red carpet, knowing fully well they would be photographed. Birthday darling had 2 changes of outfits, first was a white outfit & 2nd was a black one, we totally love her short hair do, took years away from her. The delighted one showed her dexterity on the dance floor in joy to the admiration of all. No matter how or what anyone thinks, as long as you are happy with yourself, no one can dampen your spirit. Way to go Ruth. Many more great years ahead.

We have a couple of pictures of the birthday shindig for your good viewing pleasure.

Enjoy!!!Praaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

BATTLE OF THE COVERS- IT'S ROTIMI AMAECHI VS. EMMANUEL UDUAGHAN

 Hmmmmmmmm!!!!! These 2 states Chief Executive officers seem to be hot, hot hot right now. Both are on the cover of the 2 different magazines looking cool. Both talking about their achievements and all. Incidentally both states are 2 of the richest states in the country by virtue of the fact that they are all producing states & are in the South-South. 

Both men are also in the same party, the PDP, though on different sides off the divide, while Uduaghan is seemingly in the good books of the presidency and is therefore having no problems whatsoever. Rotimi Amaechi on the other side seems to have become a torn in the flesh of the presidency. 

Both are on different covers, Amaechi covering Mode Men Magazine Power Issue & Uduaghan on the cover of BOSS Africa's new edition. 

Whose cover gets more of your attention? BOSS Africa OR Mode Men Magazine?

IS ROTIMI AMAECHI NIGERIA'S MOST STYLISH GOVERNOR OR SHOULD WE SAY FUNKIEST?

 

ROTIMI AMAECHI &ALEX OTTI, MD/CEO DIAMOND BANK PLC

We have observed his Excellency, the Governor of the very oil rich state of Rivers over time and we can attest to the fact that he loves to stand out. Fashion-wise, over the course of time, we have noticed that he loves to take risks, it is obvious that he is a young man at heart and if you have the wherewithal to afford those things that stands one out, then why not get them. We have seen a few things by Billionaire Couture, where Angelo Galasso used to reign supreme on our beloved Governor a few times. We are not too sure, but we also think he has a few things by Angela Galasso now that the designer is back on his own.  Apart from this particular brand, we have seen a few other brands on him. The beauty of it majorly is that he wears the clothes (ensembles) and not the other way round, like some people.

Some have come to say that a complete style man is fully clothed when he has on all his ensemble with a tie. Though we agree to a certain extent. That cannot be the full determinant of who a man of style is, tie or no tie, how the man combines, how fitted the ensemble is, the overall appearance must be main consideration. It's also not just about dressing western alone, it's also about wearing one's native attires and still looking great.

All of the times, we have encountered the Governor of Rivers, in the person of Rotimi Amaechi, he has always impressed us. And just like someone said sometime ago about style, it is about the totality of the package. Not just about one thing. Even his excellency's private jet (said to be owned by the Government of Rivers State) screams of class. Check out his excellency at the 40th birthday celebration of Julius Agwu. His whole ensemble spoke of class and panache, it's either he has style himself or his wardrobe manager knows his onions. White Shirt, atop a sparkling white trouser and the white Gucci belt with the gold buckle and a cream jacket and those funky red shoes were a stunner!

So do you agree that 'Rotimi Amaechi' is the most stylish Governor or not? And if not, who is your candidate and why?

GOVERNORS VISIT SULLIVAN CHIME

GODWILL AKPABIO, GABRIEL SUSWAN, SULLIVAN CHIME & ROTIMI AMAECHI

In order to douse the unnecessary tension created by Governor Sullivan Chime's prolonged absence from work,  a few of his colleagues paid him a visit recently. Those who did were the Governors of Akwa-Ibom, Benue & Rivers States, Godswill Akpabio, Gabriel Suswan & Rotimi Amaechi respectively. The snow in the background atleast shows it is a recent picture. 

The aftermath of the visit atleast to show that he is alive and (well) is the picture above. 

Now if pictures don't lie, we know he is alive, so what's keeping him away from his office? It's going to 5 months already now.  And what's the true situation of his health? One would have thought that if the weight of governance is too much on his health or well-being, then the honourable thing to do, who have been to resign. That would have given him enough time and energy to heal. Apart from that even if he stills needs to get back to the hospital, his state would still have to take care of his medical bills. So what's the fear about? Or is it that, there is no one else in the whole of Enugu State, capable of running the State, except Governor Chime?

God save Nigeria. Get well soon GUV!

NUELLA NJUBIGBO VS STELLA DIMOKO-KORKUS- STELLA RESPONDS TO PRESS RELEASE

The battle line seems to have been drawn between celebrity gossip writer & blogger Stella Dimoko-Korkus & Nollywood actress Nuella Njubigbo, over the publication of her alleged romance with the Governor of Rivers State, His Excellency, Governor Rotimi Amaechi. After the story came out, the actress apparently got angry and responded with a press release, alleging blackmail etc. In her own response to the allegations by Nuella, Stella a few minutes ago released the response below.  Please read. We think to stop this issue from degenerating further, the Rivers State CE might be the one to get everyone to sheath their drawn daggers. 

NUELLA NJUBIGBO

GOVERNOR ROTIMI AMAECHI

Dear Nuella,
I saw the press release and I am still laughing...laughing because you did the right thing
by standing up to defend yourself but you used the wrong words and you focused on the
wrong topic.

story and the other blog has other details you might also choose to respond to..check www.bononline.tv
