Minister of Transportation and leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the South South, Chibuike Amaechi, has finally disclosed who his preferred choice for the Rivers State Governorship is.
The news of his decision to support billionaire business mogul, Tonye Cole, broke yesterday and was received with mixed reactions, following hopes of his possible nomination of someone with a known political history.
In his message to supporters and members of APC in the state, Amaechi said,  “We are aware that not all would find it easy to accept the decision but I am also conscious that the decision was made for the best interests of the party and the group. We are aware that interests are divergent and numerous. And that they can only coalesce if we get someone neutral; someone who is able to get every interests to converge as one. What is critical is victory. Loyalty is not only when it favours you but when you are tempted and stretched to your limits. Ventilate we must but to move ahead we also must as the battles ahead are numerous and tedious. You all urged me on to proceed to make a decision and swore to stand by that decision.
“The time has therefore come to so do. Good morning my fellow compatriots and wish that we stand with each other to bring down this evil Government. God bless all of us”, he stated.
