A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has opined that the political adversaries of the former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, are already threatening to thwart his ambition to unseat President Bola Tinubu if he emerges as the 2027 coalition candidate.
Naijaonpoint reports that Eze, in a statement made available to journalists in Port Harcourt, stated that Amaechi’s involvement in the 2027 coalition movement is currently causing trouble in the camp of political adversaries, who feel threatened by his network of influence in the political arena.
Eze stated that the coalition is metamorphosing into a mega political association to wrest power from Tinubu’s administration in 2027.
According to him, political saboteurs, familiar tradesmen, and serial jobbers with a penchant for betrayal and blackmail are unsettled and jolted by Amaechi’s resurgence in the country’s political advancement after his defeat in the APC presidential primary election.
He said, “In a seeming turn of events, the frontline roles of the former Rivers Governor in the coalition movement that is pioneering the formation of the All Democratic Alliance (ADA), have sent shockwaves down the spines of political lilyputts, who are opposed to his grassroots political orientation.
“Some of the fickle-minded armchair political jobbers, who once spoke ill and cast aspersion on the person of Amaechi, have now resorted to a new twist. This time, they no longer argue his relevance; rather they wish he will not succeed.
“Some brag they trust in the manipulative prowess and fraudulent trajectory of the President to use federal might to frustrate the coalition and truncate the chances of the political association to win in 2027.
“Amaechi’s adversaries are already threatening fire and brimstone; that if he emerges, they would do everything humanly and politically possible to thwart his ambition to unseat Tinubu.
“But as an ardent follower and political student of the former Transportation Minister, I know those assertions and claims are false, unrealistic and bragging of political sycophants who dish out unreasonable utterances just to massage the ego of their paymaster.
“Amaechi’s political allies are men of character, proven integrity, visionary, with exemplary leadership and managerial acumen who do not trade their persona and reputation for any amount of money.”
