Jonathan behind ongoing economic crisis – Amaechi

Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi

Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Chibuike Amaechi, has blamed the ongoing economic crisis in the nation on President Goodluck Jonathan and the Peoples Democratic Party. Amaechi, who doubles as Director-General of the All Progressives Congress’ Presidential Campaign Council, believes that Jonathan and his Government ran out of cash due to its level of mismanagement.

He, therefore, called on Nigerians to vote out President Jonathan and his political party in the forthcoming elections. The governor, who spoke on Tuesday in continuation of the ward-to-ward campaign organised by the APC in Abonema, Akuku-Toru Local Government Area, added that “the PDP-led government had embezzled money belonging to the nation; therefore, the Federal Government had no fund to purchase fuel.

“Because they have stolen all the money, there is no money to steal anymore. So, they can’t even pay for fuel. The remaining money, they have stolen for campaign. So, your suffering has just started.

“When we were meeting in Abuja, we were planning on what to do about the election. We said God will deliver this election for us. Now, how many of us know how much dollar cost now? It is N225; I am predicting that before March 28, it will be N265 per dollar,” he said.
