Tinubu Will Not Give Nigerians Power, ADC Must Pick Viable Candidate – Amaechi

Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has urged the African Democratic Congress (ADC) to urgently settle on a viable presidential candidate, insisting that President Bola Tinubu will not willingly hand over power.

He made the statement at the party’s national convention in Abuja, where he also criticised the current administration over insecurity and called for a united opposition.

He criticised President Bola Tinubu over worsening insecurity in the country, noting that many Nigerians have been killed, kidnapped, and displaced.

He called on ADC leaders to come together and mount a strong challenge against the administration.

“ADC must decide on a viable candidate. President Tinubu will not give us power.

“Why would government officials deny you to gather when the constitution gives you that right?

“How can a man who claimed to be a democrat be stopping democracy? Tell me what to tell President Tinubu.

“If you accuse me of anything I didn’t do, I will go to any length to defend myself, but these guys do even care at all. What they care about is money. They don’t deny that they are thieves and land grabbers,” Amaechi said.
