Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has charged the African Democratic Congress, ADC, to decide on a viable candidate, stressing that President Bola Tinubu will not give Nigerians power.

Amaechi made this statement on Tuesday at the national convention of the ADC, held in Abuja, the nation’s capital city.

He blasted the president over the wave of insecurity in Nigeria, where many people have been killed and several others kidnapped and rendered homeless.

He, therefore, called on all ADC chieftains to come together and challenge the current administration.

“ADC must decide on a viable candidate. President Tinubu will not give us power. Why would government officials deny you to gather when the constitution gives you that right?

“How can a man who claimed to be a democrat be stopping democracy? Tell me what to tell President Tinubu.

“If you accuse me of anything I didn’t do, I will go to any length to defend myself, but these guys do even care at all. What they care about is money. They don’t deny that they are thieves and land grabbers,” Amaechi said.
