Amaechi: 2 strong accusations Rivers APC make against Tinubu that fuel ex-minister's possible defection
In another report, legit.ng reported that some sources in the Rivers state chapter of the APC have said the ongoing romance between the Rivers state governor and some leaders of the party at the national level is disrespectful.
The party faithful pointed an accusing finger at Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the APC, his campaign team and the national leadership of the APC.
The sources said Tinubu and the APC leadership sidelined Rotimi Amaechi, the former minister of transportation, in his campaign and sponsored Magnus Abe, a former senator.
They also alleged that rather than the leaders rallying around Amaechi, they’re busy persuading Wike with a number of promises.
