How Amaechi funded Buhari's campaign: Surreptitiously wired billions into DOGGY accounts few days before APC primaries

This is the question on the lips of millions of Rivers State people that have recently seen indisputable evidence that there immediate past governor, Rotimi Amaechi ordered the transfer of more than a hundred million dollars ($100m) to questionable bank accounts just days before the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Primaries in Lagos on December 10, 2014.

This week, the indigenes of Rivers State took these allegations a step further by producing documents, evidence and facts which show that about $105 million was actually moved from the Rivers State’s Power Sales Assets account with Access Bank to a number of companies who interestingly share a common business address.

Using full-page advertorials (with signed affidavits) published in reputable national dailies such as ThisDay Newspapers (of August 3) and The Guardian (of August 04, 2015, Pages 60 & 61).

They gave details of the various companies to which these monies were channeled as provided below:

What is most worrisome about the movements of these funds is the claim by officials such as the Accountant General of Rivers State as well as the Directors and Permanent Secretaries in the Ministries of Power and Finance that they knew nothing about this particular transaction was done!

Amaechi alongside other corrupt Nigerian governors accompanied Buhari to a recent visit to the United States, where Buhari was canvassing for anti-corruption, despite being a beneficiary of corrupt proceeds

The said sum of $105m (which translates to about Twenty-One Billion Naira - N21,000,000,000.00) was part of monies received for the sale of Rivers power assets (which were hurriedly sold without recourse to due process) and paid into an account at Access Bank.

The various groups, speaking on behalf of Rivers people have prayed the Buhari Government to ensure that whatever monies the Rotimi Amaechi siphoned from the coffers of Rivers State should be retrieved urgently and all those who conspired to perpetrate the raping of Rivers State in such a manner should all be brought to book immediately.

It is their belief that General Buhari will do the right thing.
