Amaechi Not Corrupt - Rivers APC

The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress has said the immediate past governor of the state, Mr. Rotimi Amaechi, in not corrupt.
In a statement issued on Monday and signed by the State Chairman,of the party, Dr. Davies Ibiamu
Ikanya, in Port Harcourt read;

“We make bold to say that if there is any clean and spotless former governor in Nigeria, that person is Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, CON.
“Anybody, who knows Amaechi well enough, will readily testify that he is an honest, sincere, but courageous gentleman, a first-class patriot, who is ever ready to go the extra mile to see that Nigeria becomes a better place for the present and future generations.”

It also described the documentary aired on the private television as satanic and part of the state governor’s propaganda war against Amaechi, adding that Wike had earmarked billions of naira for his plot to destroy the character of Amaechi.

“Other propaganda tools planned to be deployed in the war against Amaechi include sponsored publications such as advertorials, columns, editorials and Op-Ed articles in major international, national and local print media,” the state APC said.

In Reaction, the Special Adviser to Governor Nyesom Wike on Media and Publicity, Opunabo Inko-Tariah, described the claim by the state APC as false, adding that the APC in the state was drowning and looking for something to cling on.
According to him,

“I call on Rivers people to disregard the bombastic effusions of the disgruntled and frustrated elements in the APC in Rivers State.
“Rotimi Amaechi is of no significance to Governor Nyesom Wike’s government and so, it will be needless to sponsor any war of calumny against him or the APC. There is no truth in the APC’s claim at all.
“I believe that the fear of (Justice George) Omereji’s panel’s findings is the driving force that is making them to cry wolf when there is none. It is a futile stratagem.”
