– Rotimi Amaechi has once again gone on the offensive against Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike
– In a statement, he accused Wike of what he called “gubernatorial madness”
– He also asked the governor to be ready to face the wrath of the law after leaving office and ultimately the wrath of God
Chibuike Amaechi, the minister of transportation has reacted to the allegation by the governor of Rivers state, Nyesom Wike that he created a new cult group in the state.
He asked Wike to be ready to face the wrath of the law after leaving office and ultimately the wrath of God when no constitutional immunity could protect him from.
Mr. Wike accused Amaechi of inaugurating a new cult group with the aim of creating security crisis in the state ahead of 2019 general elections.

On Monday, May 22, the governor asked the security agencies to call the minister to order just as he vowed that the group would be resisted by the law-abiding people of the state.

According to Premium Times, Amaechi reacted saying about Wike: “His exclusive and uncommon strand of gubernatorial madness when he attempted to link his mentor, benefactor and predecessor Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, as a sponsor of cultists in Rivers state.”
Amaechi released a statement entitled: “Again, Governor Wike Goes Mad.”
The former Rivers governor said the statement fit into Wike’s “style and pattern of distraction and obfuscation- tell a lie to distract, and then tell another lie and another lie to distract our attention from the previous lie, creating an endless web of lies, confusion and deception.”
“Sadly, this is the kind of irresponsible, reckless, disgraceful garrulous, scallywag conman that presides over the affairs of Rivers state,” Amaechi continued.
“However, we will burst his bubble this time and will not indulge him or dignify his crass stupidity.
“If he has any sense, Wike ought to know by now that no one takes him seriously anymore, especially whenever he makes those cooked-up vile, malicious allegations against the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi.
“This his new concocted story is
“But we won’t forget. We remember vividly that on the night of Friday, April 14, during his hurriedly arranged shambolic press briefing, Wike had threatened the President Buhari administration with fire and brimstone, vowing the mother-of-all legal action against the Federal government if the over $43million was not given to him within seven days.

“His 7-day ultimatum had long expired, yet no action, whether legal or otherwise by Wike to prove his malicious allegations and claim to the money.
“On Friday, May 6, when another opportunity was opened for Wike to prove his frivolous allegations against Amaechi and claim the money before Justice Muslim Hassan of the Federal High Court, Lagos; neither Wike nor his lawyers were anywhere near the court to claim the money. Again, another no show.
“We will continue to remind Wike and insist that he must go to court, like he vowed (as he goes, he can also take his minions and lackeys with him), to prove his frivolous claims that the over $43million Ikoyi money and luxury apartment belongs to Amaechi and were stolen from Rivers State by Amaechi; or be ready to face the wrath of the law at the appropriate time (constitutional immunity for governors is not for life) the wrath of the people and ultimately the wrath of God, which no constitutional immunity can protect him from,” he concluded.
