PDP drags Amaechi to EFCC

President Muhammadu Buhari has been urged to investigate the immediate past governor of Rivers State Rotimi Amaechi over allegations of corruption.

The PDP Deputy Publicity Secretary in Rivers, Mr. Samuel Nwanosike who spoke with journalists in Port Harcourt the state capital said the party had petitioned the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, detailing alleged corrupt practices that took place under Amaechi.

According to Nwanosike, ''Since the President of Nigeria, President Muhammadu Buhari, has told the world that he is a man with zero tolerance for corruption, we, the people of Rivers, are asking that there should be no sacred cow. We are saying that corruption in Rivers State should be investigated and justice should be done. As we speak to you, we cannot trace the proceeds that emanated from all the government’s transactions that that took place in Rivers State. Can you imagine that between December 1 and 8, 2014, with one address – 25 Trans-Amadi Road, Port Harcourt, over N21bn of Rivers funds were transferred? We are asking, where did these funds go?''
