Nigeria’s Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi, has alleged that former President Goodluck Jonathan offered him every opportunity to stay in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, but he rejected it.
Amaechi said that whatever he says in Rivers State would happen, adding that he would soon return to declare prayers in the state.
The minister claimed that God gave him victory over Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.
“You know, when Goodluck fought us, he was not fighting me, he was fighting God and I knew he would fail.
“Tell them from next year prayer will start, I will come to Port Harcourt like I used to come and I will say this will happen and it will happen.
“Let me tell you who I am; I do not drink, I have never tasted alcohol in my life, I don’t smoke; I am not tribalistic. Whether in Rivers State or Nigeria, I am not tribalistic.
‘If I were tribalistic, President Goodluck Jonathan offered me the opportunity to remain in PDP, he offered me all sort of opportunities and I said that I have given my allegiance to Buhari because I am not tribalistic.”
