"Jonathan Is Not My Brother, Vote For Northerners..." - Rotimi Amaechi

Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi yesterday at the All Progressives Congress maga rally at the Adokie Amiesimaka Stadium in Ikwerre, Rivers State to mark his seventh anniversary in office, told Rivers State people to vote for Northerners who are Muslims because they rule better.

He also corrected the opinion that President Jonathan is his brother, stating that, if you say he is our brother, what has he done for this state?

“APC is the solution to the protection of our interest. We must go there to vote out the PDP. It is not about our son. They tell you that you should not vote for these people because they are Hausa People; they are Muslims.

“But the refinery in Rivers was built and commissioned by Tafawa Balewa; he was a northerner. Shagari started NAFCON, IBB commissioned; IBB started the Eleme Petrochemical, Abacha completed it.

“They are all northerners; they are all Muslims. NLNG was started and completed by Abacha and he was a northerner and a Muslim. Bonny NLNG, NDDC, Niger Delta Ministry were established by northerners,” he said while buttressing his points.
