Reactions to old video of Tinubu praising Amaechi
@shehu_mahdi
That was then, even then it was not a true reflection of the heart. What the heart concealed then, is manifesting now....Amaechi, an enemy
@kabirusaje
Tinubu’s praise for Amaechi’s service as governor and minister shows his bold, unifying leadership.

One thing I love about life is you can never hide the truth. See PBAT showering praises on Amaechi praising his courage and dedication to his people. These traits never disappear they only appreciate with time.
@noblecryp24
Now let's look at it from this perspective, Asiwaju went to Rivers to support Ameachi , you dont expect to speak bad of him anyways, he stood by him but when it was Asiwaju's turn, he didn't support but backstabbed him, castigated him but baba is far ahead.
@BluntedonTruth
Rotimi Amaechi has always been brave and courageous. Good to see that even Tinubu recognises that.
@templemark7
After he carried the resources of Rivers state to sponsor APC, thinking he was doing good. Now, how far?
@Thisishelfic
Working in front and dedicated in with past administration is one of the quality of a good leader. Just look at the video PBAT praising Rotimi Amaechi resurface cause your records will always speaks for you.

Obi, Amaechi should stop making one-term commitments
Recall that former Kaduna state governor, Nasir El-Rufai, reacted to the one-term presidency promises of Peter Obi and Rotimi Amaechi.
El-Rufai urged the duo to stop making such a commitment because four years is not enough to make any meaningful changes in Nigeria.
The key member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition platform spoke in a video interview monitored by Legit.ng.
I will not step down for anyone," Amaechi declares
In a previous story, Legit.ng reported that Amaechi vowed not to step down, insisting on an open ADC presidential primary to challenge President Tinubu.
He accused the administration of poor policies, exclusionary appointments, and worsening hardship across Nigeria
Amaechi said zoning is for the party to decide but maintained he is among the most qualified aspirants, citing strong grassroots support.
