Amaechi Accuses Tinubu of Disregarding Edo Residents

During a stakeholders Town Hall meeting in Benin, Edo State, Rotimi Amaechi, the vice-presidential candidate for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), accused President Bola Tinubu of hating the people of Edo State. Amaechi's remarks were centered around the recent construction of a new seaport in Ogun State, questioning the necessity of multiple seaports in Nigeria.

He alleged that the project was initiated for Tinubu's personal financial gain rather than to address local production needs. Amaechi stated, “Tinubu just hates you.

If Tinubu does not hate you, why is he building a new seaport in Ogun State? What goods are we producing to have many seaports?” He further claimed that the construction was not motivated by goodwill towards the Ogun people but rather by the financial benefits Tinubu would derive from it.

Additionally, Amaechi urged the audience to consider the integrity of the electoral process, implying that those who manipulate results have suffered for four years.
