Atiku’s son lambasts Amaechi for attacking Jonathan!!! Mustapha, a prominent son of a former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, has launched an attack on the Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, for verbally castigating President Goodluck Jonathan. Amaechi had on Saturday stated that Jonathan should not be referred to as his brother for failing to execute any project in Rivers State. But the ex-VP’s son carpeted Amaechi for making what he called unguarded statements, noting that the governor was not the only one witnessing Jonathan’s alleged incompetence. Accusing Amaechi of criticising Jonathan “irresponsibly” with “no sense of decorum,” Mustapha asked him to take a cue from his colleague and fellow party member in Edo State, Governor Adams Oshiomhole, whom he described as a “mature leader.” Writing on Twitter, Atiku’s son argued that despite Jonathan’s alleged incompetence, the President deserves respect from all governors irrespective of party affiliations. “I remember very well that Amaechi was one of Jonathan’s biggest supporters for a while. Amaechi is not the only one who sees or talks about GEJ’s incompetence, but he’s the one who criticises irresponsibly the most. “But whenever Amaechi takes on the President, he does so with no sense of decorum, which is wrong for a leader. Gov. Oshiomole always accords the President a rousing welcome whenever he visits his state. This is a mature leader,” Mustapha wrote on Twitter. Mustapha, whose father is a presidential aspirant on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, however, insisted that he had “no love” for Jonathan. According to him, “by the votes of Nigerians and the will of God” Jonathan must return to his country home in Otuoke, Bayelsa State, come 2015. Urging Nigerians to “shine your eyes,” the Turakin Adamawa’s offspring stated that the raising of committees and various subcommittees by Jonathan for his presidential declaration would not prevent him from losing his reelection bid. “Look, former military President Ibrahim Babangida filled the Eagle Square, Abuja to the brim during his (presidential) declaration in 2011. Governors and all sorts of people attended but we know where his journey ended. Mr. President’s declaration may surpass that of Atiku, Buhari, and Kwankwaso combined, but it doesn’t make him more popular,” he added. He also criticised First Lady Patience Jonathan describing her as “an embarrassment to the Presidency.” Meanwhile, the Presidency has said that Jonathan has “no enemies to fight” going from various scathing criticisms of his administration!!!
