Rivers Crisis: President Jonathan Cut Shorts China Trip, Returns To Nigeria Today


President Goodluck Jonathan cut short his trip to China trip, where his administration has secured a $1.1billion loan deal from the Chinese government to finance key infrastructure projects in the country.
Although, no reason was immediately given for the decision to cut short the trip, rumour has it that it may not be unconnected with the ongoing political crisis in Rivers State, where Jonathan and his wife, Patience, have been fingered as the mastermind in the political crisis rocking the state.

The duo has severely and severally received knocks from many Nigerians who believed they are behind the decision of five anti-Amaechi lawmakers to impeach the speaker of the State House of Assembly.
The attempt by the five lawmakers though failed, but has since degenerated into bloody combats between pro-Amaechi and Anti-Amaechi lawmakers, leading to the seal off of the Assembly complex.
