Amaechi most fitting, competent, will win for APC – Dakuku Peterside

Former Director-General, Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Dakuku Peterside, said that Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi is the “most fitting, competent, and pan-Nigerian” to become the president.

Peterside said this at the party’s Special Thanksgiving Service held at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.

He said Amaechi will win the 2023 presidential election for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Amaechi had at the thanksgiving service, declared his intention to contest the 2023 presidency under the APC.

“I commend Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi for taking this critical decision to serve Nigerians in the highest office in the land. Heeding the call of Nigerians to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari is a call to courage, commitment and continuation of the current administration’s determination to develop the nation. I am convinced this Amaechi Project is Nigerians’ Project,” Peterside said.

He also used the occasion to reiterate his decision to contest the governorship seat in Rivers State.

“The agitation is everywhere across the state for freedom from the current administration of Governor Nyesom Wike, which is the lowest for the state since its creation on May 27, 1967. Every Rivers citizen, including civil servants, traders, craftsmen, students and our statesmen, are tired of Wike and PDP and are in unison to see their end. APC in the state is ready to mobilise them, going forward, to serve this wicked government the red card it well deserves,” the APC aspirant added.
