The Rivers State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has replied to the allegation by Governor Nyesom Wike that former governor, Rotimi Amaechi spent $150 million to fund the All Progressives Congress (APC’s) campaigns.
Wike had alleged yesterday at a thanksgiving service held at St. Peter’s (Anglican) Church, Rumueprikom Deanery, Port Harcourt, to mark his victory at the Supreme Court that Amaechi had dipped his hands into the Rivers coffers to fund the 2015 elections for his new found party. According to Wike, between December 1 and 18 of 2014, Amaechi used $150 million from the state coffers to fund the APC campaign, promising that the state government will recover all stolen funds.

But in a scathing remark, the APC has described Wike’s allegations on $150 million as a lie. When contacted, the state Publicity Secretary of APC, Christian Finebone, in text message said, “That is a big lie taken from the very depth of hell. Wike talks big and tough but behind his tough-talking is a moronic coward.
“He won’t advance that accusation beyond the comfort of his audience. His deeds are awaiting him and at the appropriate time he’ll be held to account. If he is serious let him go to court and summon Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi but you can be sure that he won’t do because he knows that Amaechi is without blemish.”
