Rivers state governor, Rotimi Amaechi’s suspension by the ruling People’s Democratic Party on Monday is a “political witchunt” that has nothing to do with the reason given by the party.

The party said Mr. Amaechi was punished for refusing to reverse his sacking of the executive council of the Obio/Akpor local government council of the state despite the resolution of the Rivers state PDP chapter asking the governor to do so.

“We are concerned as we believe this is political witch hunt. It is worrisome. The reason given is the suspension of the Obio Akpor council,” said Ibim Semenitari, the state commissioner for information and communications on Monday after the party's decision was announced.

“This is purely a legislative matter and done in accordance to the laws of local government councils in Rivers State.”

The state House of Assembly, controlled by Mr. Ameachi, suspended the leadership of the council weeks ago, drawing the wrath of the newly-installed leadership of the ruling Peoples’ Democratic party in the state.

amechi's suspension is equally a purely party matter and done in accordance of national working committee of amechi's party.

honestly...i don start to dey pity this man....

Amaechi knew that APC has no chance of wining the presidential seat so he wouldn't want to join issues with failures by the way there is no APC party existing in Nigeria because they are not yet registered.
