ABUJA-MINISTER of Transportation, Mr Chibuike Amaechi has reacted to blackmail reports against him, especially as he has asked an unidentified blackmailer to go to hell for asking him to pay him N5 million, saying he was too busy to attend to such a frivolity.

It will be recalled that in September last year; a blackmailer had requested that the Minister pay a total sum of N5m to stop a particular story against the backdrop that he, Amaechi did not attend to him.

The yet to be identified blackmailer who called one of the Minister’s friends to demand for a ransom of 5 million naira, days after the Minister had a private meeting with journalists covering the Ministry, continued with his threats to Amaechi that he would go public if he did not respond to him.

A close source of the Ministry told Vanguard that the Minister was angry with reporters assigned to the Ministry over the private discussions that had become a source of blackmail from one of the reporters.

The said meeting was meant for assigned reporters of the Ministry but several other journalists from print, television, bloggers and online media found their ways into the meeting.

Ameachi who was apparently betrayed over a friendly meeting where nothing was expected to be published, cut off from reporters in the Ministry for three months.

The balckmailer has been blackmailing the minister to pay for the recording or else he (blackmailer) was ready to quote him out of context and make the whole world discredit the Minister’s loyalty to the President.

On the issue that Mr. President does not read, Amaechi was actually stressing the fact that the President is focused on building infrastructures and does not care about all the negative things people write to distract him from his mandate.

“And come to think of it, the President does not have all the time to read the entire write up by journalists that is why he has a media aide. Our President is not an ordinary citizen.”

His real statement was, “Corruption is a problem in Nigeria. The problem is that everybody wants free money but one good thing is that under this administration there is no free money at all and people are not happy about that.

“One of my friends once told me that the solution to fighting corruption is to gather all the corrupt Nigerians and throw them into an ocean. This is because corruption has eaten deep into the fabrics of our society, everybody wants the easy way and you all know that when things like this have remained for a long time, it will not be easy to fight against.”

The go-to tool for pretenders who have been caught with their hand in the cookie jar is to claim blackmail.

So which exactly is it: you didn't say what is in the audio? or what you said in the audio was "quoted" out of context? or the audio was spliced? or the audio is true but unintended for publication?

Dummy, we know what it is.

I jave nothing to say

kuku say it was doctored...thats apc answer to every allegations and evidences

Like Someone Said:

"Buhari's clone saga has expired, now Amechi is their new campaign strategy..... Well if they like, let them show us where Amechi is beating Buhari, we will quietly separate the fight and still vote them again."

Stupid liars, cowards, stand by your words, Buhari is a monumental failure that everybody including his wife Aisha agreed, so stop being scared, he won't kill you and even if he does, he will still die someday, mumu Amaechi dancing with failures.

"Tribalism & religious extremism are the incubators that breed corruption in most African nations, so in fighting corruption in Africa, African leaders must first do away with tribalism, ethnicism and religious bigotry which are greatest forms of corruption"

"Nigerian President Buhari has never fought corruption, Buhari has been busy fighting political opponents and those he does not like; using federal and state resources and security apparatus, that is not fighting corruption, that is political witch-hunting and every sane citizen of every nation must rise up against Presidents using country's resources and security apparatus to silence opposition in the name of fighting corruption.

If Buhari fought corruption truly, even corrupt Nigerians themselves will hail and respect him, but what Buhari is currently doing is setting bad precedents for incoming Nigerian Presidents to capitalize on"

It hurts to share nation with morons, illiterates, unrepentant fools and tribal-religious bigots, how I wish I could change my nationality entirely....this can't be my President...always speaking with anger, frustration and hatred....

Must everything development start and end with agriculture Buhari Must all Nigerians turn to farmers before Nigeria can move forward

Instead of embracing technological revolution and human capital development with a focus on Nigerian youth development, this archaic uneducated man is busy clinging on to "go to agricultural sector, I have stopped rice importation" and yet Nigeria keep importing rice if not hunger would have finished poor Nigerians but this man think the 100,000 bags of rice being produced by few farmers close to government officials that he empowered are the ones feeding over 180 million Nigerians, oh my goodness....

Any Nigerian youth that vote for Buhari next month, nature and God of justice will pay his or her family back and visit them with Buhari's government effect, what nonsense

Amaechi Caught in the mix

Lmao!!!
This is getting more interesting

ok

He should sue the blackmailer. Why fabricating stories to detract people form his damning comment about the President?

He should have just jejely paid up

This country can never move forward having people like this, with stupid mentality leading the nation.


Waiting for buhari slaves to start praising him now

always blaming PDP directly or indirectly anyway all road leads to Daura

Amaechi could have said his mouth was hacked by PDP that would have made more sense than this nonsense zombies put up here...

What a people. Nothing can stop Buhari from going home next month. Nothing!

Reno and the PDP will be upset that the so called audio didn't cause the expected damage, distrust and disunity within the APC inner caucus.

The action of Reno just further buttress the kind on immature and win at all cost politics of our politicians today.

I do not support any political party but any right thinking person will ask the question .. why not release the full audio so we can be the judge rather than release edited bits and pieces?

Then i read some responses here in NL and felt Reno really knew what he was doing because many here just like in other platform bought into it without asking for the start, middle and end of the tape.

Trying too hard. Can't be un-do. Sorry,Amaechi. You are on the cabal's watchlist. They've even undermine you by handing the whole campaign strategy to Jagaban. I won't say it's karma going by the way you dealt your GEJ, it's just the consequence of not been able to bridle your tongue..ALways talking senselessly.

Fraudulent liar.

Cover up

only the confirmed sons & daughters of perdition will believe the lies.

Akiara:
All this long Epistle ..when the crux of the matter still remains that you finished Buhari and made the job of defending a colossal failure harder for the Zombie Brigades of APC?

This is a very weak submission from Amaechi and to any discerning person this is an insult to 'normal' sensibilities.

APC must be removed from Governance....IT'S A TASK FOR ALL WELL MEANING PEOPLE!

Just the truth...

which of these did you hear from Amaechi himself?

Any man who would disown his own statement is a coward who isn't worthy of being called a man. I am looking at you Rotimi Amaechi


O pari

Rubbish for fools

Ameachi is our campaign DG, we ain't ready to change that just yet!


MonsterDK is waiting to vote in PMB one more time, no regrets!
