Ahead of the 2027 presidential election, former Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, has claimed that the current Tinubu-led administration is apprehensive about members of opposition parties.
While speaking to newsmen recently, Amaechi who has signalled his interest to run for President in 2027, said the APC led government is now in panic mode as they are running helter skelter, distracting Nigerians.
He mentioned that at the time he was Minister of Transport under Buhari, he carried out some projects which are still being used by Nigerians but that the government of the day cannot point to any project asides ‘’stealing money''
''I thought the President said they were popular. What they are doing is panic measures. They are scared. If you are not scared, lets meet on the field. Let the people choose who they want to choose. What they are doing is that they are trying to force politicians on the people.
"If you want to vote for APC, the question you ask yourself is what have they done? The noise was Lagos-Calabar coastal road. Where is the road? I was Minister for Transport.
"I can show you evidence of what I have done. Itakpe-Warri train is there. Lagos-Ibadan, they ae using it. Kano-Kaduna under construction before we left, Kaduna-Abuja. Those were things we did under Buhari. The Lekki deep sea port.
"Let this government show one thing they have done, either in the north or in the south, apart from stealing money''
