I Fasted For 10 Months To Become Governor - Amechi by ctman(m): 5:22pm On Dec 27, 2013 |
RIVERS State Governor and Chairman of the Nigerian GovernorsForum has attributed the increasing level of insecurity in the Federal Government. He also said God, and not man, installed him as the state governor because he fasted and prayed for 10 months before he became the governor. Amaechi said rather than chase criminals away from the state, the police had decided to shoot innocent citizens. The governor, who spoke at Saint Vincent De Paul Catholic Church in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, said insecurity in the state was growing because the police had failed to do their job in an unbiased manner. Maintaining that his government was installed by Jesus Christ, Amaechi urged the people to disregard those who claimed to be responsible for his emergence as the governor of the state. He said, "As a government led by me, a government installed by Christ, if anybody tells you he installed me, tell him it is a lie. Tell him that I said I prayed for 10 months and I fasted from 6am to 6pm, calling on Christ to come down and Christ came down mightily and installed me as governor. "That is why you can see that in the face of human effontery, I have been able to stand face to face with them and I say I have Christ in me. "You must rise in that same spirit of having Christ in you and confront those who are confronting you. You must stand up for Christ because the Bible says 'faith without work is dead.' "We must not die. We must live and the way to live is to celebrate Christ and the way to celebrate Christ is to confront Satan and Satan is in different forms and shapes. "If the police shoot at you, they are satanic. If government denies you your right to live, that government is satanic," Amaechi added. "All these you may want to attribute to political disagreement in Rivers State; but it is not true. It is simply because of those who lead us in Abuja; because the police is an establishment of the Federal Government and they have refused to curb the excesses of the police. "Instead of the police to chase away criminals, they are shooting at innocent citizens. Don't stop at praying. We knew we prayed, but as you pray, you must rise on your feet and confront the challenges of insecurity." |

The same way I fasted and prayed for a year in my mother's womb, so that I got the name I'm bearing now. |

I dey laff I swear I laffed after seeing the thread. Does his Christianity show in the manner he was alleged to have mistreated an LG chairman in his state. Or in his implication of theft, with his careless statement seemingly exempting thriving statesmen from blame because the public didn't stone them. A beg make e carry go. D guy to dey talk. |

When people tell open lies against God, it pains me that God spares them. This is a situation where I will prefer the God of Israel who is a no nonsense God. Any way, Amaechi has said his own but We are all witnesses to how he has been looting his state treasury. However, I have observed that Ameachi has developed some honesty these days in running the financial affairs of Rivers State for fear of GEJ. Who says crisis has no benefit? At least Amaechi is forced to keep his hands clean to avoid falling into GEJ's trap. |
