Former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, has given reason why he has not been active in the nation’s political discourse since he left office.
Amaechi, who is also a former governor of Rivers State, in a statement said that
staying off the radar of the current political misfortune is deliberate.
“This is specially so as I am very busy with my academics at the moment. I’m currently writing examinations and therefore do not have the time for frivolities. But, certainly, not a cowardly choice.”
He said that the fact also that he has not been talking is due partly to the fact that he’s “truly unhappy with the Nigerian citizens for their docility and the nation in general.”
Amaechi said that politically, he is fully on ground in Rivers State and nobody can chase him out of the oil-bearing state.
“Let me state very clearly and also for the record, no one can chase me out of my state, Rivers, not even the intrepid nuisance currently strutting the stage. Far from it.”
