Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi has reacted to
reported attack on him and passengers onboard Abuja-Kaduna train on Sunday
night.
It was alleged that some kidnappers laid an ambush around
Mando area and tried to attack the passengers at Rigasa train station
Aisha Yesufu, co-convener of the BringBackOurGirls advocacy
group on her Twitter page claimed that Amaechi ran with his convoy after the
bandits attacked the train.
She wrote: “Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi you should be ashamed of
yourself. My sister, my brother and my sister-in-law were in that train. When
your convoy scattered and you fled like a newborn mouse whom water has been
poured on, it was witnessed!
“Governance is not by lies and propaganda.”
But, reacting Amaechi described the news as false, adding
that he was not attacked.
Responding to Aisha on his official page, the minister
wrote: “Fake News. This is completely concocted
“Madam, I was not attacked, I did not see or escape
attackers, bandits or kidnappers. I did not “fled like a…” Insults and abuses
will not change the fact that I was not attacked or escape attack, in Kaduna
last night.
“By the way, we can still be respectful and courteous here.
