The Minister of Transportation,
Chibuike Amaechi, has claimed that former President Goodluck Jonathan offered
him every opportunity to remain in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, but he
rejected it.
The minister says he went ahead
to support President Muhammadu Buhari in 2015 because he is not tribalistic.
The former governor of Rivers
State was speaking in Port Harcourt on Saturday while receiving some party
members who defected from the PDP.
The minister explained that
whatever he says in Rivers State would happen, adding that he would soon return
to declare prayers in the state.
He claimed that God gave him
victory over Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.
“You know, when Goodluck fought
us, he was not fighting me, he was fighting God and I knew he would fail.
Tell them from next year prayer
will start, I will come to Port Harcourt like I used to come and I will say
this will happen and it will happen.
“Let me tell you who I am; I do
not drink, I have never tasted alcohol in my life, I don’t smoke; I am not
tribalistic. Whether in Rivers State or in Nigeria, I am not tribalistic.
‘If I were tribalistic, President
Goodluck Jonathan offered me the opportunity to remain in PDP, he offered me
all sort of opportunities and I said that I have given my allegiance to Buhari
because I am not tribalistic.”
