An All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Aspirant and former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi has asked delegates at the party’s Presidential Primary to elect him for the office of the President.
He also stated that they should also “not hesitate to fire him should he fail to fulfill his electioneering pledges.”
Addressing the delegates, Amaechi noted that he is the most experienced of all the aspirants.
“I have been State Assembly Speaker for eight years, State Governor for eight years, Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum for two consecutive terms, and Federal Cabinet Minister for about seven years.
He said; “Dear delegates, assess us by our contributions. Do not assess us by how much we are here because if you assess us by how much we bring here, ask all of us what is our source of revenue? How did we get all these funds?

“The problem of the Nigerian state is all of us. Nigerian politicians will come and talk to you, bring out money and we accept them. Four years after, they will come back and still make the same promises. Do not vote for me if I lie to you. Do not vote for me if I have not performed but I have performed.
“There is need to move forward, to ask Nigerians to hire me and fire me if I fail. If you vote for me, the first thing is that we must develop our economy, bringing it back to industrialization and production. We will rebuild our universities to be places of learning. There will be rule of law. People will be punished for their crimes”, he added
