The Minister of Transport and Director General of the President Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Organisation, Rotimi Amaechi, has debunked social media reports that he accused the Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole of bringing bad luck to the party.
Amaechi who made the denial in a statement by the office’s Director, Strategic Communications, Festus Keyamo, yesterday, described the story as ‘fake news.’
“For the avoidance of doubt, we wish to state without equivocation that Rt. Honourable Rotimi Amaechi did not at any forum, whether in private or public, utter such words or anything close to those words in reference to Comrade Adams Oshiomhole. He holds Comrade Adams Oshiomhole in the highest esteem possible,” he said.
While blaming the story to the “sinking main opposition party” he cautioned the public to ignore such stories and pledged to run an issues-based campaign for Mr President.
