“Amaechi Once Asked Me To Bomb INEC Office” – Senator Magnus Abe

The lawmaker representing Rivers South-East Senatorial district, Magnus Abe, on Friday claimed that the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi as soon as asked him to bomb the office of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, in Port Harcourt, the nation capital.

He stated this even as rubbisshing Amaechi’s claim that he changed into running with the State Governor, Nyesom Wike against the interest of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

In a declaration he signed, Abe, who’s a factional governorship candidate of the APC within the state said: “I have received several calls this morning that the the Minister of Transportation Rt Hon Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi turned into on air this morning alleging that I am being used by Gov Wike to destabilise the APC in Rivers country.

“It’s unlucky that the only time we met, on the workplace of the country wide chairman of the APC to try to discover some working strategy to crisis in the celebration, the Hon Minister of Transportation, Rt Hon Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, spent over two hour abusing me, and calling me names.

“He did no longer mention Rivers kingdom or the APC as soon as within the course of his entire diatribe. The national chairman couldn’t name him to reserve or remind him of the reason for the assembly that day. Instead the birthday party became bullied into participating in an illegality.

“Today, rather than talk how we are able to come together in spite of our variations to mobilise Rivers human beings to vote for our party and our President, Minister Amaechi was busy telling Rivers people that I am being used by Governor Wike.

“Amaechi as governor labored with me and he’s aware that several times he ordered me to do matters that I taken into consideration wrong, or incompatible with my ideas, I no longer handiest refused to perform such orders however I usually informed him to his face that I might now not do them and I in no way did.

“When he ordered me to head set up to bomb the INEC workplace in Port -Harcourt after the 2015 elections. I informed him to his face that I can’t be a part of any movement that could contain violence and loss of life due to politics, whilst he ordered the attacks on GDI at the time Governor Wike started GDI in Rivers nation, Gokana become the primary nearby Government in Rivers country that disobeyed that order, despite the fact that there were those hell bent on sporting out his orders in Gokana at time.

“So Minister Amaechi knows from non-public experience that I can not be utilized by each person to do some thing I do now not accept as true with in. His refusal as a frontrunner to simply accept duty for his moves is the motive the birthday celebration is on this kingdom. The bulk of the fight against Wike in 2015 turned into in my senatorial district, I led the combat in man or woman from the front even inside the face of clean private hazard. It is unlucky that rather than face the actual problems the Minister has continued to interact in call calling, inciting violence, and abusing those which could assist to discover solutions.”
