The Rivers State Government has withdrawn the criminal case it filed against a former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi and governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Tonye Cole among others.

The State Government filed a criminal suit accusing them of selling government assets and diverting the proceeds running into several billions of Naira during Amaechi’s tenure as the state Governor.

When the case resumed for ruling on the legality of a private lawyer to prosecute the matter, the lawyer to the State Government and the Attorney-General of the State and Commissioner for Justice, Prof. Zaccheus Adangor informed the court that he was withdrawing the suit.

But the lawyer to the APC, Amaechi and Cole contended that withdrawing the suit was an abuse of Court process and prayed the judge to dismiss the criminal charges if the suit must be withdrawn.

The Presiding Judge, Justice Okogbule Gbasam, after listening to a heated arguments, struck out the suit and the charges against the APC and others.

I think there's a level of brow-raising moves here. RVSG withdrew criminal charges against Amaechi, Tonye Cole who are of the APC, and derecognized PDP's Celestine Omehia as a former governor, asked him to refund every single benefit he got as a former governor.


From what I think, Wike might end up working with an aggrieved Amaechi to crumble PDP in River State for APC to take over, and crumble APC at the national level for Labour party. Let's just watch as things unfold by the day. This is politics.. No permanent enemy, no permanent ally.

Has Wike suddenly realized he was former Chief of Staff and that indicts him as well? Or he's planning to the APC and can't avoid Amaechi or what?

They know it will amount to nothing, with the state of the current justice system in Nigeria, nothing will happen to the accused.

Wike is just acting strange these days. Perhaps he has seen the futility of fighting to many battles at once especially with the now thoroughly frustrated Amaechi.
