The presidential candidate of the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, has asked the Minister of
Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi, to return to the main opposition party.
Speaking through his Media Aide,
Phrank Shaibu, Atiku asked Amaechi, to resign and return to the PDP, a party he
left in 2014.
Amaechi served his two terms as
governor and speaker of the Rivers state House of Assembly under the PDP.
Still speaking on the leaked
audio where Amaechi reportedly lambasted President Muhammadu Buhari, Atiku said
it took courage for the minister to take such a step.
He said, “We lament the shabby
treatment of Amaechi for speaking truth to power in a leaked audio tape which
led to his being made a ceremonial director general of the president’s
re-election campaign organization.
“We dare say that the cold war
between the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju
Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Mr. Rotimi Amaechi as well as the statements credited to
the latter in a leaked tape which led to the appointment of Tinubu to take
charge of the campaigns are at the least a national embarrassment to the
nation.
” Amaechi must now resign and
return home to the PDP where he belongs.”
