Rotimi Amechi, former Governor of Rivers state has accused his successor, Nyesom Wike of trying to label him corrupt so he doesn't get a federal appointment.
According to THE NATION, Amaechi made the remark at a reception organized in his honour in Abuja Sunday night.
He said, ''Let me tell you what is currently going on in Rivers State. The governor and PDP are afraid of me getting an appointment to the national executive council because that will determine what the politics of Rivers State will be.
''And they know that the current President abhors corruption and the only way they can stop me from getting the appointment is to paint me with corruption. And the people that know me in Rivers State know that I don’t like money. But I am not angry with them. My anger is that in Rivers they know I don’t like money. And I expect them to defend me that I don’t like money''.
