PDP ODERED BUHARI TO COME OUT WITH EVIDENCE TO SHOW NIGERIANS THAT THE MAN IN ASO ROCK AS OUR PRESIDENT IS NOT JUBRIL FROM SUDAN

The People democratic party has  asked the president to demonstarte that he is truly the one meant to rule Nigeria by doing the needful when it come to Ameeachi. The Peoples Democratic Party on Friday asked President Muhammadu Buhari to demonstrate his much-talked about integrity by demanding the immediate resignation of Mr. Rotimi Amaechi as the Minister of Transportation.
The party, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, alleged that the minister, as the Director-General of the Buhari Campaign Organisation is using  government fund to campaign for the President.

The PDP made the call barely 24 hours before the commencement of campaigns ahead of the elections.
It claimed that Amaechi’s action demonstrated the height of corruption.


“The party says Amaechi, as Minister of Transportation and Director-General of the Buhari Campaign Organisation is using government funds to campaign for Buhari.
“The PDP notes that this action of Amaechi demonstrates the height of corruption both in Buhari administration and the person of his campaign DG,” the statement read.
The party further wondered how Amaechi would compare Buhari to the PDP candidate, Atiku Abubakar, who it claimed had been generally accepted as the next President of Nigeria.
It alleged that Amaechi had lost touch with Nigerians.
The PDP advised Amaechi to prepare to return to Rivers State instead of trying to promote what it called a failed candidate.


Amaechi first office in politics was as Secretary of the now defunct National Republican Convention in Ikwerre Local Government Area of Rivers State. Between 1992 and 1994, he was Special Assistant to the Deputy Governor of Rivers State, Sir (Dr.) Peter Odili, and also a member of the Board of West Africa Glass Industry as well as Risonpalm Nigeria Limited. Dr. Peter Odili believed in him as a young man with potential in politics, and adopted him as a political son, guiding and nurturing him in politics, and consequently facilitating his election into the Rivers State House of Assembly in 1999.
This relationship between him and Odili translated into a harmonious relationship between the Executive and Legislative arms of government in Rivers State, until when Rotimi Amaechi launched a campaign against the State Government, and verbally attacked the image of the State Governor, in an effort to succeed Peter Odili as governor in 2007.
He was the Rivers State’s Secretary of the Democratic Party of Nigeria (DPN) caretaker committee after in 1996 during the transition programme of General Sanni Abacha junta.
He contested and won the People’s Democratic Party primary for Rivers State Governor in 2007. His name was substituted by the party, an action which he challenged in court. The case eventually got to the Supreme Court.
He became governor on October 26, 2007, after the Supreme Court ruled that he was the rightful candidate of the PDP and winner of the April 2007 Governorship election in Rivers State.
He was reelected for a second term of four years in April 2011.


His administration invested in infrastructure development, construction of roads and bridges, sticking to the vision of connecting all parts of the state by road. The governor was also committed to urban renewal and modernization of transportation services. His administration began building a monorail to provide mass transportation within the city of Port Harcourt.
Some power plant projects (Afam, Trans Amadi, Onne) were also built to improve power supply in the State.
Chibuike Amaechi holds the national honour of the Commander of the Order of the Niger (CON). He is a Christian Catholic and a Knight of St. Johns.
