Jonathan was never a brother of Rivers State – Amaechi

At the launching of Clean-up Ogoni land yesterday in Bodo City, Gokana Local Government Area of Rivers State,  Chibuike Amaechi, who was the former governor of Rivers State and the current Minister of Transportation, said that Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan was never a brother of Rivers State.
He noted that even with all the efforts he made to ensure that Jonathan implemented the United Nations Environmental Programme report on Ogoniland, the Ex-President refused to carry out the project.

“…we did everything possible to make our brother the former president to implement the report, but, he refused. He said.
“But with President Muhammadu Buhari, we are here today in keeping with our campaign promise.
“The economy of Ogoni people will change through this cleanup. There is no way the people will not receive anything from the money that would be invested for this project. Through that the economy of the people will change.”
