It’s an insult responding to Wike’s allegation – Amaechi blasts Rivers state governor

March 11, 2021
in People

The verbal war between Rotimi Amaechi, minister of transportation and Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state, has took a new turn.

Abacityblog.com reported that Gov Wike had accused the federal government of protecting Amaechi from prosecution over allegations that he diverted funds of the state.

Wike, who served as chief of staff to Amaechi while he was governor, accused his predecessor of diverting the resources of the state — an allegation the minister has repeatedly denied.

Speaking on Arise TV on Thursday, Amaechi who was in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), before he left to work for the emergence of Muhammadu Buhari as president in 2015, said he did not want to discuss Wike whom he has surpassed on all levels.

“I don’t think I want to address the issue of the governor, I have made my point and I have moved on,” Amaechi said.

“He was my staff, I can’t bring myself low. I was a governor, I was also a speaker, I’m a minister. I was two-term chairman of governors’ forum. The same when I was a speaker. Why should I be discussing him?”

The minister also denied calling Wike a drunk.

“I only say that I don’t make statements under the influence of alcohol. Some people are attaching meaning to what I say,” he said.
