He said there was no iota of truth in Amaechi’s claim, adding that Amaechi position was purely based on malice and envy of Tinubu’s achievements.

Eta, an ally to Tinubu, said: “I take very strong exception to Amaechi’s sour grapes towards Asiwaju. When Asiwaju won election about three weeks ago, I was foraging the newspapers and other information channels to see if he would congratulate the man who trounced him in the primary of our party.JAMB Result

“I did not see any such indication that Amaechi has done what is decent and democratic by congratulating the presidential candidate of the party that gave life to his dead political career, eight years ago.

“Now, if he is alluding to the fact that whatever has happened to his rogue APC structure in Rivers State is as a result of the hand of Asiwaju in INEC. Let him answer this pertinent questions: When in 2015 elections he failed woefully to deliver any substantial electoral value in Rivers State, was it Prof. Yakubu that was in charge of INEC at the time?”
