The Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media, Lere Olayinka, has lashed out at a key member of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, coalition, Nasir El-Rufai, over his comment on former Transportation Minister, Rotimi Amaechi.
El-Rufai had disclosed how Amaechi sponsored the Congress
for Progressive Change, CPC, in 2011.
He disclosed that while Amaechi was still a member of the
Peoples Democratic Party, he gave CPC money to hold its convention in 2011.
El-Rufai had said: “Let me tell you people something, in
2011 when we were in CPC, we were to go to convention and we didn’t have money.
“Amaechi then was governor of Rivers State under the PDP. I
don’t know how he got to know, then he asked how much was needed to hold the
convention, and he gave the money. It was the money we used to organise the
2011 convention.”
However, Olayinka said the same Amaechi led a rebellion
against former President Goodluck Jonathan as a PDP governor.
Posting on X, he wrote: “In that 2011, Rotimi Amaechi was a
PDP governor. He sponsored CPC then. The same Amaechi led the rebellion against
President Goodluck Jonathan.
“That’s one of the people talking to you about Kolision.”
