Amaechi’s Presidential Ambition is my Project, i Asked Him to Run – Sen Ndume

The federal lawmaker representing Borno South senatorial district, Ali Ndume, described the presidential ambition of the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, as his project.

Meanwhile, following his official declaration, the Minister has been meeting with various stakeholders across the county with Ndume being involved in his trips across the country.

Senator Ndume while speaking on Channels TV on Tuesday said Amaechi is the best presidential aspirant among the aspirants seeking to clinch the presidential ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He said, “I am one of those who had asked Amaechi to run. I started it. That is my project. I was one of those who asked Amaechi to run because I feel at this critical time we need a Nigerian to run, not somebody who will run based on where he comes from or region; not somebody who is not experienced enough; and not somebody who does not have the pedigree, energy and intellect to run.

“In the APC, I feel the best candidate we can present is Amaechi. I don’t want to use the word that he is better than those who you listed. The best doesn’t mean others are not good enough. When you have very good people, then you pick the best. He is the best.”

The Chairman Senate Committee on Army noted that the Amaechi will be a great candidate as he described him as someone who “has the pedigree, energy and intellect” needed to run the affairs of Nigeria.
