Amaechi backs Buhari |
As 2015 draws near, aspirants for the highest place in Nigerian politics attracts more numbers.Summing to its rank under the canopy of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is Maj-Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.), former Head of State. And Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, the Rivers State Governor declared his opinion of backing up the general, during the visit of the general at the state house.
Describing corruption has the core problem of the state, the governor satisfied that Buhari is the solution to it wholly. And also regret the illusions of Nigerians against Buhari concerning he has been tribal and religious bigot.
Quoting from his statement, Amaechi said that “The problem that you have in politics, which I have come to notice is that those who managed your image in the past did not oversee it decently. They allowed them the erroneous label of your being a religious bigot to stick. Let me take myself for example, if you accuse me once, I accuse you 20 times and then go to the media to tell them my own side of the story. Those who describe you as a religious bigot do not know you. Candidly, I used to think that way when I was in the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), but all that changed when I joined the APC and had the opportunity to link up with you very closely as a politician and realized that you are truly in the genuine sense of the word”.
Due to protection concerns, the preparations for Buhari’s declaration of presidential ambition have reached feverish levels with the locale of the event (Eagles Square).
