“Buhari will follow Due Process”- Amaechi
Rivers state Governor, Chibuike Amaechi has debunked talks that Gen Muhammadu Buhari, will jail his rivals, saying that the president-elect has respect for rule-of-law and due process as a democrat.
Speaking at a thanksgiving service in Port Harcourt organised by the campaign organisation of the gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress in the state, Dr Dakuku Peterside, Governor Amaechi said that the party was ready to protest the results of the gubernatorial elections and urged its supporters to prepare their petitions.
Also extolling the president-elect’s attributes as a man who follows due process, he said: “The only thing you have to do is to ask officially as a party, as an individual for a proper investigation of what happened in the state.
“I am very hopeful that everybody involved in one electoral malpractice or the other will be brought to book so that people will have respect for the law.”
In his own address, Peterside thanked God for His faithfulness and urged his supporters to thank God for sparing their lives all through the elections as his ambition to be governor was not worth the life of any human being.
