Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has called on Nigerians who are reaching out to enquire about the political interest and direction of former Transportation Minister, Rt. Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, ahead of 2027, particularly his ambition to lead the country out of the woods, to hold on yet, noting that the former Governor will address the issue in due time.
In a statement made available to the media, Chief Eze said Nigerians reach out to him in a daily basis on the same subject, “whether Amaechi is ready to run for President in 2027” or “whether Amaechi has interest for 2027” or “ what is the political direction of Amaechi for 2027”, and the likes.
He further said God will inform the decision of the former Governor and Minister, stressing that politics, democracy and leadership in Nigeria today are falling like pack of cards under the current dispensation.
“Nigerians are reaching out to know the interest of Amaechi because the current administration is not concerned about the problems of the country. A government whose focus is to manipulate the process to retain power in 2027, has failed. The wobbling economy, hunger and starvation, insecurity and violent killings and other heinous crimes perpetrated in daily basis should give any responsible government a sense of concern. But despite the mounting challenges, the presidency is plotting to retain power by all means. That is not how leadership works. It is not democracy. So, Nigeria needs direction and is understandable why people are calling on Amaechi to take action”, he noted.
Chief Eze however urged those who are curious to know the mind of Amaechi ahead of 2027 to be a bit more patient, assuring that as soon as the former Minister briefs him one way or the other he will make it public.
He said of a fact, Amaechi remains a pride to Nigeria and his public service records makes him an ideal Presidential material and Nigerians quit understands that.
“The likes of Amaechi are needed in the scene in order to assuage the suffering and rescue Nigeria from her present precarious State. Amaechi would sacrifice anything to make Nigeria work. Selflessness is his watchword”, he said.
