Twitter War Between Amaechi And Ben Bruce

Well, away from all the buzz in the Entertainment industry raving on different social media of our Celebrities calling each other out back to back. Big names in the political circle like Amaechi and Ben Murray Bruce engaging in Twitter War, that is definitely gonna trend for a long time to come.

Well the Beefing allegedly triggered by a popular tweeter user, Japhet Omojuwa, who tweeted :

The reason I will NEVER take people like Ben Bruce serious is because when they saw a leader (GEJ) do wrong, they kept quiet. Don’t be Bruce— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) February 6,2016

And without wasting time the Bayelsa Senator responded and tweeted :

Your own minister spent ₦80 million on a one day dinner, yet it is your citizens you accuse of being criminals#IAmANigerianNotACriminal— Ben Murray-Bruce (@benmurraybruce) February 6, 2016T

Apparently using the recent comments credited to President Muhammadu Buhari that some Nigerians are giving the country a bad image by engaging in nefarious activities around the world. While condemning the president’s comments.

The tweet was apparently targeted at Amaechi who was accused of funding a dinner of N80M to host Wole Soyinka during his time as gov of Rivers State.

Apparently sensing the jibe thrown at him by the Senator, Mr.  Amaechi wasted no time in responding to Mr. Bruce; accusing him of being a coward.

“A coward who is not bold enough to name the minister that he alleged criminally spent N80M on dinner is unfit to sit in our senate chambers,” he said.

Amaechi’s spokesperson, David Iyofor, Sunday confirmed to PREMIUM TIMES that the twitter handle used in responding to Mr. Murray-Bruce (@ChibuikeAmaechi) belongs to the Minister of Transport.

He also said the Minister’s response was triggered by Mr. Bruce. The Senator responded to Mr. Amaechi by referring to the recent Supreme Court judgment that upheld the election of Nyesom Wike as governor, thereby, stifling the hope of the APC candidate and Mr. Amaechi’s ally, Dakuku Peterside.

He posted another tweet on his handle @benmurraybruce saying,

“When you have been Wike’d, you become wicked! But you will always be my beloved brother, no matter how much you transfer the anger on me.”When you have been Wike’d, you become wicked!

The Transport Minister reacted by accusing the Bayelsa Senator of only finding his voice on twitter while he is hardly seen contributing to debates in the Senate.

“I will not respond to innuendos. Be courageous, name the minister. We know you talk here & do ‘siddon’ look where you are elected to talk,” he said.
