The Real Reason GEJ’s Foot Soldiers Are Asking For Election Postponement – Amaechi Reveals

The governor of Rivers state and Director General of Buhari Presidential Campaign Council, Rotimi Amaechi has said President Goodluck Jonathan is scared of defeat and that is why his foot soldiers are mobilizing for election postponement.

According to him, the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP would be history after 2015 elections if they allow a level playing field.

Amaechi, who spoke on Tuesday, during the 2015 Thanksgiving Day Service held at the Dr. Obi Wali International Convention centre in Port Harcourt said the APC was sure of victory with the level of distribution of Permanent Voters Card (PVC) to the electorates in the North and other parts of the country, PM News.

The governor said despite the political blackmail and baseless propaganda by the PDP against the APC, they would remove the ruling party from office.

He said: “I promise you that, PDP will be history in this country after the presidential elections. Over 60 to 65 per cent of the electorates in the north have already collected their Permanent Voters Cards.”

The governor claimed that the PDP had asked some unnamed willing editors of various national newspapers and other media houses to start heating up the political system that will warrant the postponement of the 2015 February elections.

Amaechi said: “We are on course to move PDP out of office in the upcoming 2015 February elections. This is because we need to ask ourselves why PDP is asking for the postponement of the elections?”

The Rivers governor therefore urged the people of the state and APC supporters to vote massively for the party’s victory in the 2015 general elections for dividends of democracy to thrive.

“This is the time for the massive support of the APC to claim what rightly belong to them from the PDP government. On the day of the election, we will vote APC all the way. This is the time to claim our victory and that is why Rivers state is close to the APC Presidency, So, we can bring dividends of democracy to our people. No project was done by Jonathan and his administration and no effort was made to revamp our refineries. That is the reason why we should vote APC,” Amaechi stated.

It would be recalled that about two weeks back, Amaechi had boasted about his confidence that the APC presidential candidate, Muhammad Buhari will win.
