Amaechi Challenges Sowore on Governance Record in Debate

During a political discussion in Port Harcourt, Rotimi Amaechi, former Rivers State governor and ex-Minister of Transportation, engaged in a heated exchange with Sowore, the African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate. Sowore criticized politicians, including Amaechi, for their past governance failures, questioning their credibility in seeking power again.

He specifically challenged Amaechi's record as Rivers governor and Minister of Transportation, arguing that politicians should be accountable for their past performances. Amaechi defended his tenure by highlighting infrastructure projects such as roads and schools built during his administration and railway projects executed while he served as Minister of Transportation.

He urged Sowore to inspect these projects and insisted that his record should be judged based on tangible outcomes rather than political rhetoric. The confrontation underscored the ongoing debate over fuel subsidy removal and the performance of past public officials ahead of the 2027 general elections.
