Amaechi was later called to respond to the request by the APC leadership to join the party. The governor, who looked visibly excited, grabbed the microphone and sang a   popular Igbo Christian song, celebrating God in his life.
He said he had listened to the various speakers but he would want to consult with President Goodluck Jonathan and other stakeholders in the political sector before deciding on whether to dump the  PDP.
The governor described himself as special in the committee of the seven governors of the ‘New PDP’  because he is from the same South-south zone with President Jonathan.
“I am peculiar in the group of the seven governors. The president comes from our zone.  I will consult our leaders, the president; I will consult you (referring to the mammoth crowd). I will consult all consultables. I will come back to you. The day we shall take a decision,  it will be at the new stadium that can take 40,000 persons.  If we are staying (referring to the PDP), we shall call the president to the stadium to address; us if we are going, we shall call Tinubu and Buhari to come and address us”, he said.
Amaechi, who took on his political foes, said the political crisis in Rivers  was largely due to his refusal to abuse public funds, stressing that he was not a corrupt governor.” They don’t accuse me of being corrupt. They only say I don’t run an inclusive government which is ‘chop I chop’.” he said.
The governor said he would continue to pray to God to protect the state from those he accused of plotting to plunder its resources.
Amaechi  gave reasons why he danced excitedly at the funeral of the foster mother of  the wife of President Jonathan in Okrika..  “I was told I would be stoned at Okrika if I went there. I went there, I raised my right hand, there was applause   and the left, it was the same. I said ‘God I thank you’. “
He  said those fighting him in the state were corrupt, adding that he was ready to engage them publicly  on accountability and transparency in governance anytime he was called to do so.
“Those on the other side are corrupt. We shall reply them one after the other. They have served and now are hungry.  They are desperate and hungry politicians”.
The governor, who said he would not compromise on good governance, dismissed the speculation that he might be sacked by a court verdict on Monday, 11 November.   “” You have been hearing ‘we will remove him since’ 2007. Have I been removed!  They talk as if they are God. They said we will be removed on the 11th  which is Monday.  Come that day, I will dance here”, he said while singing, “There is nobody greater than God. There is no one greater than the Lord divine”.
Amaechi said his administration was constructing roads, building health centres, schools, adding that he had also commenced empowerment scheme for youths in the various wards in the state.
The governor called on the people to resist acts of impunity on the part of the police command in the state.
