Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA), has advised the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike to stop witch-hunting his predecessor and former boss, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi.
HURIWA also told the governor to apologise to his former boss for the needless political war of vendetta against a man who entrusted key offices to him when he was the Governor of Rivers State.
On September 14, 2015, Wike vowed to implement the recommendations of the judicial commission of inquiry probing the sale of the State’s valued assets by the Amaechi administration.
Also, Justice George Omereji’s led seven-man commission of inquiry concluded its proceeding on the matter over the weekend, warning that the former Minister and some members of his administration who shunned the panel should be prepared to bear the consequences of their action

According to Daily Post, HURIWA accused the Commission set up by Wike of reaching predetermined conclusions and indicting Amaechi without hearing his side of the story.
In a statement by its national Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, HURIWA said it thinks “the politically motivated witch-hunt using certain forces in the judiciary against Amaechi is the source of the current political troubles and ‘karma’ afflicting Wike.”
HURIWA also stated that Governor Wike, in the last eight years, has become anti-workers and dictatorial
The group counselled Wike “to put an end to his cantankerous political warfare against his kinsman- Amaechi and end his administration as a democrat and not a quarrelsome tyrant.”
