Amaechi Nursing Plan to Join PDP? Ex-Minister's Ally Opens Up

  • Rotimi Amaechi's ally, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has dismissed the report that the former minister of transportation was nursing the move of rejoining the PDP
  • According to Eze, Amaechi remained a committed member of the APC, despite his recent comment against the ruling party
  • Eze, a chieftain of the APC, maintained that the claim on social media that the former Rivers governor was nursing to join the PDP was a total fake news

Chibuike Amaechi, the immediate-past Minister of Transportation, has been at the centre of a recent controversy surrounding his membership in the All Progressives Congress (APC). Rumours have been circulating that Amaechi regrets joining the APC and would even consider rejoining the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) if given a chance.

However, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a chieftain of the APC, has come out to vehemently deny these claims, calling them a "piece of falsehood" concocted by mischief makers.

Amaechi never regret joining APC - Eze

According to Eze, Amaechi has no regrets about being an APC member. In fact, Eze believes that Amaechi's silence over the past year has caused "sleepless nights, unimaginable fear, and palpable tension" among his detractors, who see him as a potential threat in the next political dispensation.

Leadership reported that Eze's statement was in response to a social media report alleging that Amaechi regretted his decision to join the APC. However, Eze dismissed this report as a baseless and malicious attempt to smear Amaechi's reputation. He described the report's author as a "faceless paper tiger" who is trying to cast aspersions on Amaechi's character.

It's worth noting that Amaechi has been a key figure in the APC, having served as a presidential candidate for the party. Although some have questioned his loyalty to the party, Eze's statement makes it clear that Amaechi remains committed to the APC.
