Amaechi Refutes $150m graft, spending on APC

By Correspondent

The media office of the Transport Minister, Rotimi Amaechi, has said that the insinuations by the Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, that his predecessor, Amaechi, within 18 days, purportedly stole $150,000,000 from the state government coffers which he siphoned to his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), are irresponsible, repugnant and contemptuous, In a statement signed by David Iyofor says, “The new allegation is in sync with the one-point agenda of the Wike administration, which is to throw as much mud as possible at Amaechi, hoping that some may at least stick.” The statement adds, “Making a new spurious allegation of corruption against Amaechi will not make Rivers people forget that most of the beautiful, working institutions built by the Amaechi administration are now being allowed to rot away. “All sorts of spurious stories about alleged corruption and stealing of state funds against the Amaechi administration, have been bandied in the media with no attempt to substantiate or prove these distorted false claims even, when Amaechi challenged the Wike administration and its agents to use any constitutionally available legal process or procedure to prove their jaundiced, deceitful allegations against him and his administration. “They have rather elected to do their own corruption probe, trial and conviction in the media; and now, even in our solemn places of worship. “Rivers people are concerned and worried that crime and criminals are back and have taken over. No quantum of mudslinging and attempt to disparage the inspiring legacies of the Amaechi years in Rivers State would distract Rivers people from these issues.”
