If You Change The President… – Amaechi

Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi, explains why and how the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), will change Nigeria for the better if elected.


Speaking ahead of the March 28 polls, governor Amaechi noted that the country’s problems and challenges would be properly addressed, which will allow to turn the national misfortunes around.
Vanguard reports that the politician made a claim in Degema, Obonoma and Abonnema communities, Degema and Akuku-Toru LGAs, during APC’s ward to ward campaign.

He also lamented over failure of the Presidency to act decisively in terms of the recent political violence in Okrika, Rivers State.

“This election is not about brother, it is about your stomach. If dollar likes, it can get to N300 or N400 to a dollar, the President can afford it but you can’t afford it. Now they tried everything possible to stop the dollar from losing control. They couldn’t because the economy will determine whether the dollar will lose control or not and the economy has done that already.

“Another one is fuel. They have done everything possible to pay for fuel. They can’t pay. The money is not there. Now, there is fuel crisis. If they win, they will abandon you completely because they have no solution to the problems.

“The first solution to the problems is a new government. Are we going to win? The answer is yes. We have not started campaign. We will start campaign by the end of this week. We will see the crowd again that will frighten the president. Nigerians want change. Things have got to change.”

Apart from economic issues, he touched upon the problem of bad road in Kalabari area and vowed to fix it if the APC came into power.

“See your road. Two years ago, I sat with the president and Kalabari chiefs and I said, ‘Allow me take this road. The president said no’. You can see the road. Next rainy season, you cannot drive into this place unless you change the President and if you change the President, then the new President can fix the road.”
