The Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has said it discovered steps made by Governor Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi to sneak out of the state after his party, the All Progressives Congress loses the February 14 and 28 elections.
The party argued that it is cowardly because it showed that the outgoing governor lacks the spirit of sportsmanship, which is the hallmark of a good leader and politician.
Speaking further on the development through a statement signed by the SA Media to the state chairman of the party, Jerry Needam, the party said Amaechi’s fears of the PDP governorship candidate, Chief Nyesom Wike, succeeding him and his preference to seek political asylum outside the country in the event of PDP’s sure victory raises a moral question on his integrity and claim of transparency.
According to the PDP, if Amaechi has nothing to fear for which he wants his “surrogate”, Dakuku Peterside, to cover up for him, there will be no need for the anxiety that has gripped him when the elections are yet to hold.
The party therefore warned all Rivers State people, contractors, creditors, consultants and business partners of Amaechi to take note as the PDP government is not ready to inherit any debt incurred under fraudulent and controversial circumstances when it takes over office on May 29 later this year.
