2027: If Tinubu wins, we are retired from politics, Amaechi...
原文原文 / Original TextVice-Presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, has told leaders of the opposition party that many of them will be retired from politics if President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is re-elected.
Amaechi said this while addressing ADC-National Women League Conference in Abuja, on Wednesday.
Citing example of how the All Progressives Congress (APC) defeated the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at the center in 2015, Amaechi charged the women to go to their states and wards and bring in votes, saying that is the only way ADC will be able to defeat APC.
He said, “If you are not from FCT, go home and campaign, me I am going on Wednesday, I will not wear suit, I will dress like a young man. Let me tell you what will happen. We the crop of leaders you see here. If APC wins 2027 elections, we are retired from politics. So if you don’t want us to retire from politics, we must go home.
“If you bring two thousand votes per ward, don’t win your ward. Just bring two thousand votes we have won the election. Men are controlled by their wives don’t let your husbands sleep, because if we win, you have won. We will not take any election lightly, you will see me in Kebbi, Yola, Rivers, Delta fighting for the governorship elections, because the Presidential candidate cannot govern without the governors.”
Amaechi, a former minister of Transportation, said the APC used women to defeat the PDP.
“When we were in APC and we wanted to remove your government, you saw what we did. We brought out the women, in every state we went to, women were in front. We spoke to them, we met with them at night, and we made sure that we told them that if they did not come out to vote, we would not win. And they came out. We fought the war, and we won.
“That time, Nigeria was not as hungry as it is now. Nigeria could afford some food, right? Now, how many of you can afford the food? How many of you can pay school fees without texting, texting to Dino (Senator Dino Melaye) or somebody else to give you some money for school fees.
