A pro-All Progressives Congress (APC) group under the ageis of Bridge Builders Initiative For Green Nigeria (BBIGN), says it has saved the sum of N2bn for the presidential campaign of the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi.
Addressing newsmen at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja, on Wednesday, National President of BBIGN, Emmanuel Orgwu, said Amaechi, a former governor of Rivers State, is the best man to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.
Orgwu said Amaechi, if given the mandate, would consolidate on the achievements of President Buhari and take Nigeria to a greater height.
The group also congratulated Senator Abdullahi Adamu and other members of the National Working Committee (NWC) and asked them to consider Amaechi for the party’s ticket, adding that the Minister has all it takes to win the election.
“We Nigerians have saved the sum of N2 billion to give to Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi for his electioneering activities once he declares his interest to contest for 2023 Presidency. So, Mr. Minister, money is not going to be a problem or cause any hindrance.
“Therefore, we are giving you a twenty-one day ultimatum to declare, otherwise, we shall force you to do so. As Nigerians, we have both legal and moral rights to choose our King, and we have chosen Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi.
“His capacity, commitment to good governance, welfare of the people, critical thinking on programme and policy implementation, approaches on issues that enhance growth and development and sacrifices for the party, put him at number one position for the highest job in Nigeria,” the group said.
