The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has challenged Rotimi Amaechi to explain the outcome of a $10 million fumigation project reportedly undertaken during his tenure as Rivers State governor. He recently had his say during a media chat while responding to a question on why he had been criticising the former governor.
Denying reports saying he is targeting Amaechi unfairly, Wike stated that his former governor should expect scrutiny because of his ambition to become Nigeria’s vice-president.
The FCT Minister added that Rotimi’s aspiration to occupy the country’s second-highest political office makes it necessary for Nigerians to examine his record and past decisions.
His words, “You can’t just want to run for a position without anybody telling you the past. So, let Nigerians judge if all these things are correct.
You told Rivers people that you’re going to fumigate the state so they won’t be suffering from malaria, and you paid 10 million dollars to a company in Cuba. Could you tell Nigerians what is the effect of that fumigation?”
