How Rotimi Amaechi was reduced from THIS to THAT by the Huasa/Fulani-Yoruba alliance |
At the beginning Amaechi was so confident he was heading to Aso Rock. In most o his photo opportunities he always found time to point towards Abuja.
How Rotimi Amaechi was reduced from THIS to THAT by the Huasa/Fulani-Yoruba alliance |
After his rejection Rotimi Amaechi has this to say:
"I knew I had lost everything the very minute Tambuwal withdrew from the contest. Because a Tambuwal/Amaechi ticket was what we all agreed ab initio, that the Nigerian masses yearn for. Besides, for anyone to become the President of this country, it requires, first money, a young politician that can connect with the Nigerian youth, then popularity. And the leadership of the party did their survey independently without any inducement and said a Tambuwal/Amaechi ticket will dislodge the PDP. And we all agreed!
Only for them to turn around and started singing Buhari. Agreed, Buhari is popular in the north, but he is not young and does not have money!
"And how do you justify Yemi Osinbajo as Buhari's running mate?
How is he better than me?
We are both Christians. We both don't have money. I'm more popular than him, and have worked for the party. Nobody is god to his fellow man. This is the height of injustice from those who cannot keep their own part of the bargain.
"As I speak to you, members of our party in Rivers state are all in a despondent mood. Perhaps the leadership of the party and the demi gods would have to come down to Rivers state, to talk to members of the party, because they are all disappointed" - Gov. Rotimi Amaechi
