‘Ex-Governor is clean, spotless,’ Rivers APC says

The comment was made on Monday, September 14, 2015, by Rivers APC Chairman, Davis Ikanya via a statement.

 

The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has described former Governor, Rotimi Amaechi as ‘clean and spotless.’

The comment was made on Monday, September 14, 2015, by Rivers APC Chairman, Davis Ikanya via a statement.

The statement reads in part:

“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 would readily testify that he is an honest, sincere and 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.”

The party further urged President Muhammadu Buhari to ignore the smear campaign currently being launched against Amaechi.

“Just as the blackmail against President Buhari was ignored by Nigerians, who massively voted for him, so, too, should the President, having himself been a victim, also discountenance the dirt,” the statement read.

Amaechi had earlier also distanced himself from allegations of corruption saying that he ‘doesn’t like money.’
