According to the FCT minister, the only possible reason Atiku could have chosen Amaechi was financial rather than political value. “Amaechi being the running mate to Atiku, I have come to know that it will indeed be difficult for Atiku to become president.

What did your government then do that impacted the lives of Rivers State people?” Wike also took a swipe at the African Democratic Congress (ADC), accusing the opposition coalition of hypocrisy over its internal processes.
