Erstwhile National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New People’s Democratic Party, nPDP, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has described as false hate campaign against the reputation of former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi.
The chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) described Amaechi as a pragmatic political czar, visionary, team player and a force to reckon with as far as genuine democratic governance and leadership in Nigeria are concerned.
Eze said “Amaechi has been vocal about the troubling ineptitude and docile posture of the APC led Federal Government over the hostile economic situation in the country apparently reinforced by the thoughtless policies of the administration which have successfully driven Nigeria into its present hapless fate and have continued progressively, to commandeer the people deeper and deeper into abject poverty.”
Eze said the concocted report credited to one nossypoker called Mr. Ibe, that Amaechi expresses regrets for joining and helping to build APC into a formidable political bloc after discovering the gamut of clandestine schemes projected by saboteurs within the party to frustrate his fortunes on the political playground, was false and baseless.
Chief Eze who is a close ally of the former Governor and Minister further said “Amaechi never had any media audience with any faceless character neither did he authorize anyone anywhere to manufacture such falsehood as the report portrays.
“Though the recycled report does not merit any response, however it is also pertinent to put facts in their proper perspective so as not to mislead the unsuspecting reading public who may be swayed by the grotesquely distorted information brandished in the media space.
“At this point, I state here that the recent recycled trash by the said Ibe, a political grandstander, faceless mischief maker, blatant liar and morally debased fellow, is nothing but a hoax, false narrative, and unsubstantiated white lies resorted to by some media irritants and hate campaigners solely to smear the spotless reputation of Amaechi.
Amaechi’s perceived sin if any is his harmless but honest truth that the troubling ineptitude and docile posture of the APC led Federal Government have caused hostile economic situation in the country due to thoughtless anti people policies of the present administration, which have successfully driven Nigeria into its present hapless fate and have continued progressively, to commandeer the people deeper into abject poverty.
The fabricated report by the nossypoker called Mr. Ibe, stated that Amaechi had expressed regrets for joining and helping to build APC into a formidable political bloc after discovering the gamut of clandestine schemes projected by saboteurs within the party to frustrate his fortunes on the political playground.
“The recent falsehood lacked an authenticated and verifiable imprimatur, and therefore, is liable to be deposited into the trash bin of insensitive statements from insane minds. The author of that satanic piece only tactically embellished his make-believe report with some likely valid points to curry public validity, however, I make bold to state unequivocally that such arrant nonsense never emanated from the former Transportation Minister as falsely portrayed.
“The report was deceitfully coined in a tone that suggests it emanated from the former Rivers State Governor, whereas, the imaginary writer and his source have no link whatsoever with the South-South leader of the ruling APC.”
Eze continued that the statement was aimed at tarnishing Amaechi’s image and cause rift between him and genuine members of APC and by extension, opposition politicians who share similar views on the need to salvage the country’s economy from nosediving.
He restated that Amaechi does not entertain any regrets in joining hands with other founding members and sacrificially contributing to building and nurturing the APC into a formidable political party.
“Like every other Nigerian, Amaechi is only full of regrets for the odious insensitivity of the ruling class to the plight of the ordinary people of the country and the difficult times the loud negligence of government holds as a consequence. But then, the author of the recycled piece is on the frolic of his own to score a cheap political goal, and was not by any way engaged by Amaechi.
“It is instructive to warn the fickle minded Ibe, his co-blackmailers, co-conspirators and all those peddling and recycling the false narrative to desist from such infantile indulgences as such will not earn them a response from the revered nationalist.
“If not that Amaechi mobilised men and resources to cause APC to win the 2015 Presidential election, he would have been dead by now, considering the boast of his former Chief of Staff, Barr. Nyesom Wike, who later became the Governor of Rivers State, at that time that all borders would have been closed to ensure the arrest and incineration of Amaechi. The records are there for all to see. Which human being in Nigeria’s political space will be so threatened the way Amaechi was threatened at that period without looking for a way out to save his head. That Amaechi is still alive today is because of the formation of APC and her victory during the 2015 general elections. So, how can Amaechi now regret ever joining APC as being postulated by one lunatic and habitual liar, Ibeh.
The truth remains unassailable and incontrovertible that Amaechi used APC to showcase his prowess in innovative leadership and administration by the legacies he bestowed to Nigeria and Nigerians through his revolution in the Ministry of Transportation. The fact remains that the shoe Amaechi left at the Ministry can hardly be worn by any other person so appointed into that Ministry. Amaechi left an indelible footprint on the sands of time as far as purposeful and pragmatic leadership are concerned while he held sway as a Minister.
So, if at all Amaechi should have any regret about APC, it is the efforts by some greedy fellows, self serving political bigots and nepotists who are currently running the party and the APC government who have no idea of the vision of the party thereby causing Nigerians untold and unmitigated pains. This barrage of blackmail is because Amaechi is currently setting up a think-tank and governance agenda on how to recover and reposition the party to accomplish the vision of the founding fathers.”
Eze therefore, urged Nigerians to be a little patience, saying the unveiling of the true APC will soon be highlighted, notwithstanding the grand design and plot to viciously use faceless media terrorists to attack those who mean well for the party tagged as perceived political foes.
