Why Amaechi asked Wike to resign – Omokri

Reno Omokri, former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, on Tuesday berated Rotimi Amaechi, Minister of Transportation for asking Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike to resign.

Recall that over 15 persons were killed in Omoku, Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government Area of Rivers State by a group of gunmen.

Against this backdrop, Amaechi, a former governor of the state demanded Wike’s resignation over the spate of insecurity in Rivers State.

Omokri, in his reaction said Amaechi’s call was a plot to instigate a “state of emergency in Rivers so Buhari can have access to Rivers’ funds for his re-election campaign.”

The former Special Adviser to Jonathan on New Media said this in a series of tweets via his social media handle.

He wrote: “This call by Amaechi on Wike to resign over killings of 20 people during New Year seems like a plot to instigate a State of Emergency in Rivers so Buhari can have access to Rivers funds for his re-election campaign.

“Times 100 the people killed in Rivers have been killed in Kaduna. This call by Amaechi on Wike to resign over killings of 20 people during New Year seems like a plot to instigate a State of Emergency in Rivers so Buhari can have access to Rivers funds for his re-election campaign. Times 100 the people killed in Rivers have been killed in Kaduna

“Amaechi says Wike must resign because armed men killed 20 people in Rivers. If Amaechi thinks Wike should resign because of killings, what does he think should happen to Buhari since Fulani herdsmen have killed and still kill thousands of Nigerians under the Buhari Presidency?”
