Rotimi Amaechi, who previously held the office of Minister of Transportation, has claimed that Mahmood Yakubu, the current chair of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), is exhibiting indications of partiality.
The ex-Governor of Rivers State claimed that if Yakubu had been the chairman of INEC during that time, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) would not have been registered or won the 2015 general elections.
On Tuesday night, Amaechi appeared as a guest on Arise TV and praised former INEC Chairman Prof. Attahiru Jega for his role in guaranteeing a transparent electoral process that resulted in the APC’s registration and subsequent victory in 2015.

He stated, “The current chairman of INEC, if he had been the chairman in 2015, we would not have won. That is a significant aspect. God bless (Attahiru) Jega. Because the basic rules were unambiguous. The current INEC chairman is comparable only to Iwu.
“ At the time of registering APC, we met the registration requirements after Jega opened the door for us. He had the APC registered. The current man, should you adhere to all of these, would not register you.

“INEC is already showing bias. At this point, the only thing I can say is that, considering how Nigeria has conducted the election, even Option A4 was an improvement. At the very least, a lot of transparency. You were certain about the situation. Upon our return, we encountered individuals such as Iwu and others, including the current one, and the situation deteriorated.

Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a prominent figure in the All Progressives Congress (APC), has urged Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), to officially join the ruling party if he genuinely considers himself an asset.
On Wednesday, Eze issued the challenge in a statement released in Port Harcourt, responding to Wike’s recent media interview in which the minister criticized former Minister of Transportation Chibuike Amaechi.
Reports indicated that Wike had taken issue with Amaechi’s comments during the latter’s 60th birthday celebration, where the former governor of Rivers expressed distress over the economic difficulties experienced under President Bola Tinubu’s administration and claimed to be “very hungry.”

Eze charged Wike with treachery against democratic values and expressed doubts about his moral authority in today’s political landscape.
He stated, “The fact remains that if Tinubu were a clean democrat, he would have rejected the results of his alleged electoral success in Rivers State, fully aware that Wike has effectively undermined all he claims to have achieved as a democrat.”

Eze claims that Wike is aware that posterity will not treat him and his generation fairly, and that the FCT Minister has sold his conscience since then.

The APC chieftain stated, “If I were to pay full attention to Wike’s rants about Amaechi, I would be squandering my valuable time. His only motivation is envy.

“That man has no good conscience. He is aware that they are in APC waiting for him, to deflate his ego. He has faith in eye service. You have one leg in PDP and another in APC, yet you consider yourself an asset. You are merely a storehouse of blackmail, greed, envy, and ingratitude.

“Is it reasonable?” You have turned your back on and ruined a party that was responsible for your current status, and now you are extolling the virtues of Tinubu and the APC.

“You wish to harvest where you did not plant. I have warned Wike multiple times; he has already set himself up for political failure, and figures such as Akpabio, Uzodimma, Umahi, and Oshiomhole are waiting for him in the APC.

“Wike is slowly but steadily being drained by the burdens of morality, blackmail, betrayal, and backstabbing; he is suffering from dementia.

„Amaechi ist nicht arrogant oder hinterhältig; er hat seine Zeit, und er ist kultiviert.“

“The world knows of Wike’s actions during the 2023 Presidential election, where he took credit for the illegal activities that occurred in Rivers State.

“This demonstrates Wike’s lack of shame and the submissiveness of our security framework. In informed societies, no one openly claims credit for electoral fraud and goes unpunished as Wike did.
“While it may be true that you aren’t hungry given the extent of public looting linked to you, Nigerians are aware that Wike has played a role in creating 75% of the country’s hunger through his backing of Tinubu’s administration, which has caused widespread hunger across the nation. ”

Nevertheless, Eze expressed gratitude to Wike for dedicating time to recount Amaechi’s political achievements over the past 23 years of dedicated service to Nigeria and its people.

Moreover, Eze commended Olabamji Enitan Jowosimi, the Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on New Media, and Lere Olayinka, the Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications and Social Media to Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), for their honest recognition of the president’s inability to lead Nigeria.

Barau I. Jibrin, the Deputy President of the Senate, along with all members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Northern Kano Supporters, have endorsed President Tinubu’s plans for a second term.

This occurred while the Deputy President of the Senate carried out an official commissioning of the recently upgraded institution, now named the Federal University of Science and Technology, Kabo, on Tuesday.

As requested by Barau Jibrin, the Deputy President of the Senate, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu approved the transformation of the Federal Polytechnic into the Federal University of Science and Technology, Kabo.

During the event on Tuesday in Kabo Local Government Area of Kano State, hundreds of APC members and the Deputy President of the Senate gave a standing ovation for President Tinubu’s second term agenda.

Their belief was that the President’s affection for the Kano North Senatorial District would suffice to guarantee their votes for him to remain in office past 2027.

Barau praised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his unmatched backing of educational initiatives and infrastructure advancement in both Kano State and the broader Northwest region.

“We informed Mr. President that our main focus was to elevate the Federal College of Education, Kabo, to the status of a Federal University. He just stated, ‘Bring it, I will sign it.’ And he put his signature on it,” Barau told the crowd, which erupted in cheers.

He also disclosed that after the upgrade, he asked for the creation of another Federal Polytechnic in Kabo, which was approved as well.

“We went again, and he signed it,” he mentioned.
Barau, the representative of Kano North, stated that Tinubu’s ongoing support included the endorsement of a Federal University of Science and Technology. He characterized this as a significant benefit for not only Kano but all of Northern Nigeria.

“What greater love can a leader demonstrate towards his people than to invest in their future through education? „Barau erkundigte sich. „Mr. President hat gezeigt, dass ihm die Basis am Herzen liegt. Und wenn man die Basis bildet, so gründet man damit das Fundament jeder Gesellschaft.“

He commended the President for recognizing education as fundamental to development and for his efforts to ensure the region is included. “He has approved every request we have brought to him. That is what truly characterizes a responsive leader.

Barau also narrated how Tinubu overturned a contentious decision that would have downgraded Yusuf Maitama Sule University from its upgraded status as a federal university of education.

“After the decision was reversed, I approached Mr. President again. I told him that this was unfair. He said, “I presented him with a proposal right then and there, and he gave it immediate approval.”

“I state this with no doubt: President Tinubu has love for the people of Kano, the Northwest, and all of the North.” „Er hat noch nie einen unserer Entwicklungsvorschläge abgelehnt“, fügte er hinzu.

Also addressing the event, Alhaji Yusuf Abdullahi Ata, the Minister of State for Housing, commended the President’s administration for its focus on inclusive development and enhancing educational access throughout various geopolitical zones.

The commissioning was attended by dignitaries from both within and outside the state and was seen as a major milestone in federal support for higher education in Kano State.
