Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has stated that Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, won the presidential election in Rivers State.
Speaking on Saturday during an X Space discussion, the former Rivers State governor said, “I can agree with you to some extent that Obi won Rivers State, but I don’t know how the results were changed.”
Amaechi’s comment comes amid controversy over the outcome of the February 2023 presidential election in Rivers State, where the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) the winner.
During the same discussion, Amaechi also revealed that he and former Ekiti State governor, Kayode Fayemi, initiated talks that led to the formation of the opposition coalition now working to challenge the ruling party ahead of the 2027 elections.
According to him, what began as a private conversation between the two was later expanded to include prominent political figures such as former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, ex-Kaduna State governor Nasir El-Rufai, former Secretaries to the Government of the Federation Babachir Lawal and Boss Mustapha, former Senate President David Mark, ex-Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola, and former Sports Minister Bolaji Abdullahi, among others.
The coalition has since adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as its political platform.
