2023 Presidency: Amaechi gets extra security amid rumour of Buhari’s endorsement

Buhari Amaechi

Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi now has extra security, a development linked to the race for Nigeria’s 2023 presidency.

Sources claim President Muhammadu Buhari is favourably disposed towards seeing the former Rivers Governor succeed him.

“The President will not raise an objection if Amaechi desires to contest. In the interim, the calculation is he will run alongside (Governor) El-Rufai.

“Also, I can confirm that security around the minister has been doubled. This could not have happened without Mr President’s clearance”, one said.

Apart from additional protective operatives keeping watch, Amaechi currently moves about in a recently purchased bulletproof Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV).

During an interview in January, the Nigerian leader declined to reveal his preferred choice for the country’s topmost job.

“I would not (mention) because he may be eliminated if I do. I better keep that a secret”, Buhari said.

Amaechi was Rivers State House of Assembly Speaker from 1999 to 2007 and Rivers Governor from 2007 till 2015.

Last weekend, supporters of the 56-year-old marched round major streets of Calabar, the capital of Cross River.

Bearing placards and other promotional items, they urged him to declare an intention to run in 2023, insisting he is qualified.

The loyalists, under the aegis of Unity House Foundation (UHF), are spread across the six South-South states.

“We are here to join voices, with our members and other youths across Nigeria, to call on the Minister to declare his aspiration to run for President.

“He has a track record, from his days as Speaker through Governor of Rivers, Chairman of Governors Forum, and Speakers.

“He has been able to revitalise the railway system in the country, the Maritime Academy in Oron, among others”, said UHF Chairman, Chima Onuoha.

Some All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftains have signified their interest to vie for the presidential ticket.

They include ex-Lagos Governor Bola Tinubu, ex-Abia Governor Orji Kalu, Ebonyi Governor David Umahi. Vice President Yemi Osinbajo and Ekiti Governor are reportedly eyeing the seat but yet to declare.
