Amaechi Warns PDP: Money Won’t Decide 2015 Elections

Governor of Rivers State, APC presidential campaign director Rotimi Amaechi, has stated that money will not play any role in the forthcoming general elections.

Meanwhile, Amaechi, cautioned the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP) not to rig the elections as anything opposing to free and fair elections will not be recognized by Nigerians.

He said: “General Buhari won the APC primary without money. Nigerians are now wiser. They can’t be deceived with money or any material thing. This election will not be based on money, if it is to be based on money, President Jonathan would win the election.

“There is no difference between the pocket of the Federal Government, the pocket of President Jonathan and the pocket of PDP. It is the stealing at the national level that led us to where we are now. We can’t continue in a nation where N2.3 trillion was stolen and nothing was done.

“If PDP wins the Presidential election in a free and fair situation, we in the APC are not like what they are calling us, our leaders are responsible, we will congratulate President Jonathan. But if they use military against us and rig the election, we will not take them to court, we too will take illegal action against them because what they have done too is illegal.”

He upheld that APC never means to cause violence or breakdown of law and order in Nigeria, but stated that social inequality is what should not be permitted to succeed.

Amaechi also revealed that his government does not owe the state workers, as he has directed that all workers be paid before the celebration of Christmas.

Rotimi Amaechi was appointed APC the Director General of its party’s presidential campaign as former head of State, Muhammadu Buhari emerged its flag bearer after he beat four other candidates at the APC presidential primary in Lagos last week.
