Nigeria is completely destroyed - Rotimi Amaechi says as he announces his resignation from APC

Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has resigned from the ruling party, APC. 

 

Speaking at the coalition meeting in Abuja, Amaechi announced his resignation from the APC on Tuesday night, July 1. He emphasized the urgent need for a complete overhaul in Nigeria, describing the current state of the country as completely destroyed.

This content has two paragraphs.

 

Amaechi, who was a past governor of Rivers State, also accused the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC of colluding to hijack the forthcoming elections in the country.

 

He expressed surprised that he was not expelled from the party after he warned them not to send invitation to him for meetings.

 

Asked why he decided support not to support the ruling party, he said

“No, it’s not about changing the government, if it is about changing the government, there is no need of changing the government, it’s about changing Nigeria.

Nigeria is completely destroyed. People can’t eat. People can’t buy food. There’s no money to buy food. Everything is gone. Inflation is at its peak. And the federal government is busy going around trying to hijack the election. INEC is helping them to hijack the election.

No, no, no. What must happen here is that we must start not just a party, but a movement, it must be a movement that brings in Nigerians to on their own take over government, not us.”

 

He further stated;

 

“I left APC last night. I never attended one meeting, last time they invited me I warned them. I said, if you invite me to any meeting anymore… In fact, I was surprised that I wasn’t even expelled because I warned them in writing, don’t even invite me to any meeting. You can’t be in a club where majority of people are stealing and you don’t say anything.”

 

Assessing the Tinubu-led government, Amaechi said

“I have never believed that Tinubu is a material to govern the country, I have never, because now, people want (Muhammadu) Buhari to come back. What happens in Nigeria is that when a new government takes over, it becomes worse than the previous government that makes people say let the previous government come back.

People are asking for Buhari because things were better during Buhari’s administration. Dollar was I think ₦460 or five hundred and something now a dollar is one thousand five hundred and eighty, that is more than one hundred percent.”

 

Reminded also that some people may argue that the exchange rate may be a deliberate government policy, the former Minister said

“Whether it’s a deliberate government policy or not, any government that does not take into consideration the people you are governing is not a policy. President Tinubu said he is not here to make Nigerians happy.”
