‘you Can’t Be More Igbo Than I’ — Amaechi Slams Abaribe by NwibanaEmmanuel(m): 3:53am On Nov 28, 2018
Minister of Transportation and Chairman of Buhari Campaign Organization, Rotimi Amaechi has challenged the Senator representing Abia South senatorial district, Enyinnaya Abaribe.

Amaechi said that the lawmaker “was not more of an Igbo native compared to  himself”.

In a swift response, Senator Obinna Ogba, a member of the committee asked the minister to withdraw his statement, saying it was an insult to the senate.

Ogba said the Senate never expected such statement from the transportation minister and persuaded him to concede in withdrawing his statement.

Reacting to his  invitation by the Senate Joint Committee on Land, Transport, Local and Foreign Debts on Tuesday, the minister said: “I have been hearing what Senator Abaribe has been saying over the eastern railway about me.



“Abaribe can’t be more Igbo than I. Most Igbo people cannot interpret Abaribe, but most Igbo understand and can interpret Amaechi.”
