Wike Used The Military To Defeat Us In 2019, Says Amaechi

Former Governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Amaechi has accused the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike of using the military to rig the 2019 governorship election.

Amaechi, who made this known in an interview with ThisDay at the weekend, said he never invited the military to the state.

The minister, stated that he will never allow a repeat of what happened in 2019, as they are prepared to takeover power in 2023.

“I did not use the military. I did not even know there was military at Abonnema. I swear to God. I’m not joking. When I heard about the shooting at Abonnema, then, I asked: What happened at Abonnema that you people went there to shoot? That’s when I heard that a military officer, protecting INEC’s materials, was standing, like a lieutenant colonel in the army, and you were courageous enough to shoot him?” he said.

“How will it happen? If they repeat what they did the last time, you will see what will happen. They were celebrating the last time. No known politician will allow what happened the last time to happen again. They went to court… The last time we didn’t speak because we wanted to respect institutions, Now, this is the last lap,” he added.
