Former Governor of Rivers State, Gov. Amaechi spoke, yesterday, in Port
Harcourt, while addressing loyalists of the All Progressives Congress,
APC that he was in the Rivers State capital to quietly attend a church
program and will leave same day, adding that he had clear documents
pointing at the alleged corruption acts of Governor Wike.
Amaechi vowed never to appear before the Justice George Omereji
Commission of Inquiry investigating alleged sale of the assets of the
state by his government, insisting that the establishment of the
commission did not comply with constitutional provisions, that he will
only appear before a properly constituted commission in the state.
He said:
“I have been listening while in Abuja to Nyesom Wike accusing me of
corruption and I laugh. Even Nyesom Wike knows that I don’t like money,
he knows that”.
“The pressure Wike is putting on us is to let somebody call us
together to a meeting to withdraw our case challenging his election
from court.. The party has a right to go to court. The law of Nigeria
says there is no independent candidate. Even if I, Amaechi, Peterside
withdraw, APC will carry on with the case.
“The funny thing about the young man is that he knows I know him. I was
his governor, I have documents to show that he is a contractor. I am not
a thief; so I don’t know what this young man is talking about.”
The former governor, who accused INEC, SSS, Army and militants of
conniving to rob the APC of victory in the last gubernatorial election
in the state, said he and his party will continue to fight until they
get justice from the court.
