Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi has boasted that
if he could govern Rivers State during the time militancy was rife in the Niger
Delta, he is the best candidate to be elected President in 2023.
Amaechi, who paid a courtesy visit on the Katsina State
Governor, Aminu Masari, in Government House, Katsina, said if be becomes the
APC Presidential flagbearer, security and the economy will improve.
“As Rivers Governor, I was able to tackle insecurity, I
championed development and stabilized the Rivers economy, such feat would be
replicated if elected for the country’s topmost job.
“Your Excellency, you are the first Governor I’m visiting
after declaring to run for the President of Nigeria in 2023, I will visit
others as I progress with my consultations.
“I have visited three to four Emirates which are under your
jurisdiction. I have come to also brief you on how far we’ve gone with the
railway construction, an assignment given to us by the President. I am here to
also tell you that I am interested to run for the office of the President of
Nigeria.
“Sir, I am qualified and I am the only candidate who has
governed a State when there was militancy and within one year it reduced
drastically. Companies who left the State due to high level of insecurity
returned, Shell Petroleum Company reopened and normalcy returned to the State.
“So, I have the experience to manage crisis and provide good
governance and I believe that with this kind of experience, having been in
public office for eight years as a Governor, and two times Speaker of the State
House of Assembly, seven years as Minister and also chaired the Nigerian
Governors’ Forum and the Speakers’ Forum, and also the DG, President Buhari
Presidential Campaign twice, I should be in the best position to run for
President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and there’s a need for you to
assist me in actualizing this ambition”, he emphasised.
