Amaechi describes Wike as a sick and fraudulent man.

The immediate past Governor of Rivers State, Hon. Chibuike Amaechi, has described the probe of his administration by his successor, Nyesom Wike, as a sham, a fraudulent witch-hunt meant to deceive the public. In a statement released by the former Governor’s Media Office on Sunday, Amaechi described Wike as a sick man who is sickly fixated on rubbing him (Amaechi) with his (Wike’s) mud of corruption and then grabbing media headlines with his concocted bogus stories of ‘Amaechi’s alleged corrupt activities.’

The former governor also took a swipe at his former deputy, Tele Ikuru, over his claims that the Amaechi administration under which Ikuru served as deputy governor was the most corrupt in the state. The statement read: “This so called Wike’s probe of Amaechi is dead on arrival. All the noise Wike is making is to grab media headlines with his lies of monumental corruption against Amaechi. It’s all drama made for the media. What is playing out is a script written and directed by Wike. Wike should move to Nollywood where his devious skills would probably be useful.
