He specifically mentioned the former minister’s achievements in the railway, maritime reforms and port sector, NAN reports.

“Amaechi proved his mettle as an administrator of men, materials, and resources during his tenure as transportation minister; so, his re-nomination by the president is a vote of confidence and honour.

“Under Amaechi’s watch, Nigeria witnessed tremendous leaps in the reforms carried out in NIMASA, Nigerian Ports Authority other maritime agencies and railway sectors, which have produced outstanding results to the benefit of Nigerians,’’ he said.

According to Peterside, the former governor of Rivers is a reform-minded and visionary leader who approaches his work with the highest degree of passion and commitment.
