Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi has said he is more qualified to lead Nigeria than Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and former Lagos governor, Bola Tinubu.

Amaechi disclosed this on Wednesday during his visit to Kano as part of his consultations ahead of the All Progressives Congress’ presidential primary election.

The former minister resigned from President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet to pursue his presidential ambition under the platform of the APC.

Governor Abdullahi Ganduje, during the meeting, however, refused to endorse Amaechi.

Ganduje, who is known to be an ally of Tinubu, said Kano as a “swing state, will continue to swing”.

He added that Amaechi would know where the state eventually swings to at the appropriate time.

Meanwhile, the former minister said he was more qualified than Tinubu, noting that the former Lagos governor had never been a minister, and even as a lawmaker, Tinubu only served for a few months.

He added that he was more qualified than Vice President Yemi Osinbajo because while Osinbajo was a commissioner in Lagos, he was already a Speaker of Rivers State House of Assembly.

He added that he ended up as a two-term governor while the VP’s only other appointment after being a commissioner was as Vice president.

Okay but now he's the vice president of Nigeria and you're just a resigned minister...

Amaechi why na. Why you go talk this kind wicked talk. You don dey learn from Wike, abi. But chei, southwest don suffer, no be small. Dem don finish Tinubu with yabis. Now dem don dey knack VP commissioner too. Chei, to become president, no easy O!

No be who first start.

Errm, and so?

These papers just pick headlines to force a rift between political allies, most notorious being SR.

I'm pretty sure Amaechi didn't mean that in a malicious way.

Well that was not how he stated it.

However, this is allowed. He is campaigning for himself and using the method he thinks can place him above his colleague, even tho what he said is a very lame argument for superiority.

Osinbajo is now the VP and previously acting president. He can also flaunt this as to why he is better and more experienced that Amaechi.

did he say that ? No
Is it true? No

Meanwhile, the former minister said he was more qualified than Tinubu, noting that the former Lagos governor had never been a minister, and even as a lawmaker, Tinubu only served for a few months.

Him even knack Tinubu join. Chei, I don tire O. Mr shaky shaky daddy na small boy
Him never even try out as minister. How him go con do job of president.

And AMEACHI when TINUBU was senator in 1992 where were you ?

yes ooo

When Osinbajo was doing his PhD Amaechi was a political thug then......is not hw far but hw well, nw his d VP and Amaechi is just a mere minister that could have been sacked by Osinbajo when he was acting as president


So there's nothing to campaign about rather than attack just as his idiot supporters have been doing on nairaland

Amaechi is confused and obviously living in d past, so bcoz Osinbajo was formally a commissioner then is d reason dey should support u instead....that's d most childish and foolish campaign strategy have seen

Moreover Osinbajo was only commissioner to tinubu and Amaechi was governor during Fashola tenure so hw is Osinbajo commissioner when he was governor, did he even know d period Osinbajo was a commissioner

If he continue to thread the path of childish campaign of smearing name of fellow contestants, monumental defeat awaits him.

may be you should read the write up before convulsing

Amaechi remains the most matured of all the candidates so far, even when the so called elder have been boasting amaechi have maintained mutual respect in all

If this is true ....its very childish and myopic. Osinbajo is a Vice President today making all of your Cv extremely below his status. We need issue based campaign and not rubbing shoulders. I trust vp not to dignify any of you with response.

Nothing reasonable can ever come from u....a reasonable person would have ignored knowing fully well Amaechi said what his not suppose to but bcoz of ur foolish and blind support u don't know ur left from ur right again ashiere

Osinbajo was no longer a Commissioner when you became a Governor

Very stupid comment.

Labalaba dey call himself bird. I am not an Osinbanjo fan but I know that he has never been in the same caliber as Osinbanjo.

While he was a mere personal assistant to Dr. Peter Odili, Osinbanjo was long a professor of law and very well known.

He should take his disrespectful comment along with him to Wike in Rivers state and confront him there. Na Wike be him mate, no be Osinbanjo.

Na by experience?...buhari wey get experience wetin him do. We need someone with a good and loving heart that can move Nigeria forward.

Most of these guys don't respect Osinbajo. They see him as a toddler in politics. Saraki said same thing some time ago.

This same amaechi? well we know the antics of baby factory criminals drug traffickers developers IPOB miscreants mkpurumiri addicts and IPOB cannibals

Amaechi doesn't need to tow this crude campaign path

But when you relate with him, you call him sir...

Or when he enters a room you stand to welcome him

Thats a childish talk ,campaign should be issue based and not fallacy

Nothing we no go see for this country, imagine a lizard calling himself lion, nah may 30 this useless and braindead ameashit go no whatsup ooh
I still stand gidigba on Tinubu's mandate
