Senator Magnus Abe representing Rivers South-East senatorial district in the National Assembly has accused his political godfather, Rotimi Amaechi, of being responsible for the current crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the State.
It was gathered that the allegation made by Abe against Amaechi is currently causing ripples and confusion in APC’s camp.
Abe who might have thrown Amaechi off balance by his allegation also vowed that he will not leave the APC for another political party.
The senator who spoke through his Spokesperson, Parry Saroh Benson in a statement in Port Harcourt, traced the crisis to the March 4, 2017, meeting convened by Amaechi, in Port Harcourt.
He said, “I will not leave the APC even in the face of needless provocation and unwarranted bitterness.
“As I told the state Chairman of the party, last Sunday, every member of the party knows the cause and the reason for the present crisis in the APC in Rivers State and I will also state it here.
“The Minister of Transportation made several shocking pronouncements that heralded the root of our present crisis. He publicly declared that Senator Magnus Abe and Dr Dakuku Peterside were both running for governor and that he had ordered both of them to stop.
“He said Dr Peterside had stopped and Senator Abe had not, and that anyone supporting Senator Abe should leave the party immediately.
“He went on to name party leaders sympathetic to Abe and declared that they must leave the party.
“The Minister declared at that meeting that anyone who failed to show absolute loyalty to him personally should receive no benefit or recognition from the party whatsoever, including contracts and patronage.”
