“We will make sure they will not sleep again, as they are sleeping now. They will not sleep with their two eyes closed. One eye will be open because they know there is danger.”
Minister of State for Education, Nyesom Wike, boasted at a reception for
him in Port Harcourt on Saturday that he is ready to make life even
more uncomfortable for Amaechi.
The reception also doubled as a grand finale of the inauguration of
units of the Grassroots Development Initiative (GDI) in Obio/Akpor LGA
of the state. Wike is the grand patron of GDI.
Wike said Amaechi and the 27 members of the State Assembly on his
side have not had enough trouble yet and that what happened on the state
before is small, compared to what is coming.
Wike is aspiring to replace Amaechi as governor in 2015.
The minister, speaking at yesterday’s rally, said: “They said we are nobody. Then they have seen. When you are dealing with nobody, be careful. The nobody will show you that he is somebody. We will make sure they will not sleep again...
“Those who are saying they must remove me, I have even overstayed. For you to be minister for two years, you must thank your God. If today we are no longer minister, do not worry yourself. It will not change us. We will continue to fight for what we believe in.
“When we were here, were they not travelling up and down? Are they travelling again? Tell them, they should come and beg us. Tell them to come back and beg us. We will tell them the secret. What God has not given to you, you do not need to do anything about it.
“Obio/Akpor LGA is not a place you can toy with. Those who feel they can suspend Obio/Akpor council officials, we will make them uncomfortable. They felt once they had dissolved the council, they would sleep.
“The party has suspended them, because they have touched the lion and when you touch the lion, you know the consequences. Since they said the councillors will not take their salaries, they also will know that they will not belong to the PDP."
