The Minister of Transportation and presidential aspirant on the platform of All Progressives Congress (APC), Rotimi Amaechi, has described himself as energetic.

]Amaechi on Monday evening said no president can lead Nigeria from the hospital bed during a meeting with Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun and APC delegates in Abeokuta, the state capital.

The former Rivers governor, while canvassing votes from the delegates ahead of the 2023 election, said that even though he had been told that being energetic was not enough to lead a state, no one can lead from a hospital bed.

Amaechi stated this as one of the reasons why he should be chosen above Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who is from the state.

Amaechi is 56 years old while Osinbajo is 65. The national leader of the party, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, who is also contesting, turned 70 in March.

Last October, Tinubu returned to Nigeria after a three-month medical trip to the UK.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s incessant travels to the United Kingdom for medical treatment have cost Nigeria over 200 days since he assumed office in May 2015.

Buhari’s penchant for foreign medical help is in stark contrast with the ongoing crisis in the country, from economic to health and insecurity.

Amaechi, however, said, “I know that there is a candidate from this state, our Vice President, a man of honour, he is a good candidate, but I think that if you look well, my experience matters.

“I come with experience, I’m 56 years old, I will be 57 in May, so I’m the bridge between the young and the old. I have energy and people have said, no, being energetic is not enough to preside over a state, but you can’t preside over a state in the hospital.”

Amaechi and his team also visited the Alake of Egbaland, Oba Adedotun Aremu Gbadebo, at his palace in Abeokuta.

The transportation minister earlier in April ran round the Port Harcourt stadium in Rivers State during his official declaration as a presidential aspirant for 2023 elections.
He later said he did that to check how fit he was to “carry the problems of the country”.

“Age will not be an issue. I am like a bridge between the young and the old,” Amaechi said.

He added, “People have asked me why I ran round the stadium. I was checking to see how fit I am, so I had to run round the stadium to confirm to myself that I’m strong enough to carry the problems of the country, whether it is mentally or physically.

“Because you need both mental capacity and physical fitness to manage this country.

“You have to be physically strong and have the mental capacity to make decisions on behalf of the country.”

First u challenged Tinubu to run, now u r saying the Pee Poos man can not lead the country from a hospital bed

Tinubu Don suffer under this small boy. This small boy is even chasing him out of the party he formed.

Under one year Tinubu has been to French hospital, London hospital, Indian hospital, etc

Tinubu : I can be in UK receiving treatment and be governing Nigeria.

Some Useless Nigerians that have been made to believe in generational suffering will agree with Tinubu.

Modification:Just saw a video of Tinubu in Mecca with hands shaking like that of Mohammed Ali on Dele Momodu’s page.
Likely suffering from Parkinson.

Isn’t almost 8 years of Buhari led Administration not enough for you his supporters to reset your modafuck!NG brain?

Ok

Buhari can

Fool

All you betrayers will be betrayed

As election draws closer more and more shots will be fired and some will be too lethargic

Truth

Amaechi on Monday evening said no president can lead Nigeria from the hospital bed during a meeting with Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun and APC delegates in Abeokuta, the state capital.

The former Rivers governor, while canvassing votes from the delegates ahead of the 2023 election, said that even though he had been told that being energetic was not enough to lead a state, no one can lead from a hospital bed.

Amaechi stated this as one of the reasons why he should be chosen above Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, who is from the state.

But BUBU did that for more than 3 months. Are you insulting our President, Amaechi?

Is he trying to shade his master or jagaban

Oro yenn ju Enu re lo

PETER OBI OR NO IDIOT. VOTE PETER OBI FOR PRESIDENT. THANK YOU.

Fools, foolish

Shots fired.

I hope Buhari is listening.

Amaechi is talking too much. This kain comment can make his lose the trust of the cabal...

if at all he had any..

This is a missile of word sent to Tinubu by Amaechi

Perhaps Amaechi is now throwing jabs @ Buhari, Tinubu and the oldies who refused to rest.

Direct jab at Tinubu,he is also mocking Buhari indirectly. Amaechi talks too much and he is not smart. The cabals in the presidency will be observing him quietly and would think he would backstab them if he gets the plum job.

Nigeria and politics of no substance. So who's on the hospital bed now?
