Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, has urged the people of Rivers state to massively vote for the All Progressives Congress in the upcoming rerun elections in the state.
Amaechi on Tuesday, called on the people of Rivers to join him and shame President Goodluck Jonathan, his wife Patience Jonathan and the incumbent governor of the state, Nyesom Wike.
The former Rivers governor while speaking at a town-hall meeting with members of Afara community, in Rivers, said: “We must stop Nyesom Wike and the only way we can stop him is to vote the APC in the house of representatives, house of assembly and senate.”
“I built a secondary school and it has been taken over by weeds. It is the punishment that former President Goodluck Jonathan and his wife, in her bid to get money from me, did on us. They forced Wike on us without election.”
“In their time, they threw APC members into detention, but is there any PDP member in detention now? That’s the difference between them and us. This is our opportunity to vote and put shame on them; we have to put shame on three persons: the first person is the former president, the second, is his wife and the third is Wike.”
“The fourth is those who do not recognise the use of card reader, those who first said the magnitude of violence in Rivers was too heavy and moved the election tribunal to Abuja, but later came back to say there was no election, we leave them to God.”
