AMAECHI IS FOCUSED ON A HUGE NATIONAL ASSIGNMENT, DETRACTORS STEER CLEAR

While detractors are restlessly thinking of means and ways to pull him down, the man, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi, Honourable Minister of Transportation understands that obstacles are the scary things you see when you take your eyes off your goals. He knows what constitutes obstacles to his national assignment and he knows that these obstacles are inimical to national development. He knows that the best thing to do is to ignore them.

Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi has a huge and critical national assignment to accomplish at a time like this and he is focused on achieving the assignment. He has set his goals right. Like he did in Rivers State as Governor, he wants to contribute his wealth of experience towards moving Nigeria forward. He is joining hands with President Buhari to take Nigeria out of the woods. He is working hard to take Nigeria out of the economic doldrums that previous governments put Nigeria. He wants to ensure that there is free movement of humans and goods across the 36 States of the Federation and FCT Abuja. He understands that when a country gets to the point where its citizens can move from point A to point B without difficulty and goods can move from point of production to point of consumption, then that country can be said to be among the league of progressive nations. He is focused on contributing his own quota in economic stimulation and development.

There is no doubt that there are people who don't want him in particular and President Buhari and Nigeria, in general, to succeed. This group of people are enemies of progress. This group of people are not happy that Nigerians can ride to their offices, business locations, schools, hospitals, etc, with modern trains. This group of people who don't have development in their agenda feel that by the way Amaechi is going, he will show Nigerians how wicked the previous governments were to Nigeria.

We are happy that Amaechi is in the development team of Nigeria. If you love Nigeria and want her to grow and develop, join hands with President Buhari's total clampdown on corruption and corrupt tendencies. Fighting corruption is not an easy task as we are aware corruption fights back. If and when corruption fights back, be ready to resist its neutralizing effects.
