The factional of the All Progressives Congress (APC) led by Emeka Beke in Rivers State said Tony Okocha is doing everything possible to force former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi out of the political party.

Spokesman of the faction, Darlington Nwauju, explained that Okocha’s intent was the major reason he has been attacking the former minister.

Okocha, on Monday, described the former Minister as a failed politician who was unable to attract any single project to the region and the state.

“Why has former Governor Amaechi’s name become the only currency that Tony Okocha and his group can use for their political trade by batter? The only reason why Tony Okocha is doing everything possible to construct a gulf in the APC family is to vex the original stakeholders of the party in the state like Amaechi and force him out of a political party he laboured to build in Rivers State,” he said.

Nwauju said destroying other people’s reputations to gain political relevance is what every reasonable man should query.

Also, an APC chieftain, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, said Amaechi influenced over 15 crucial projects in the South-South region and helped several South South people to get appointments into various Federal Government agencies.

Eze, Erstwhile National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP), said, it was necessary to give clarity on Okocha’s statement. He stressed that Amaechi served all parts of the country equally as Minister and attracted several developmental projects to the South-South region contrary to Okocha’s claims.

“For the records, Amaechi pushed for the construction of the 39km Bonny Bodo road and its two creek bridges including the bridge over Opobo channel at a whopping sum of N120 billion. This gigantic bridge is comparable only to the 2nd Niger bridge project among others,” he said.

In response to Okocha’s claim that Governor Siminalayi Fubara has not achieved anything since he assumed office, Eze said such a statement indicates that Okocha does not know what governance is all about.
