Amaechi denies, opens up on supporting PDP in 2023
“So if there is somebody who can match Wike madness for madness, boxing for boxing, it’s Amaechi”
Former Minister of Transportation and chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Rotimi Amaechi has denied claims that he will soon announce his support for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in respect of the forthcoming 2023 elections.
He as well reacted to claims that he is not in support of the APC Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket because it contradicts his belief as a devout catholic.
Umar Sani, a former Senior Special Adviser on Media and Publicity to Vice President Namadi Sambo had on Twitter space, titled HardTalk, reportedly disclosed that the former Rivers State Governor had said as a devout Catholic, he cannot support a Muslim-Muslim presidential ticket of the APC.
“I’m glad to tell you that in Rivers state, PDP has gotten Amaechi because he (Amaechi) said he is a Catholic and will not support a Muslim-Muslim ticket. He is going to support PDP”
“So if there is somebody who can match Wike madness for madness, boxing for boxing, it’s Amaechi” Sani had said.
But reacting to the claim, Amaechi denied: “He is lying. There was never any time I said anything like that”.
“He is lying. There was never any time I said anything like that,” Daily Independent quotes the former Minister as saying on Friday, December 30, 2022.
