Below is a press statement from former Rivers
state governor, Rotimi Amaechi denying claims in that he
operates an account with an unnamed bank in Minnesota, USA. The press
statement was released by his media aide, David Iyofor. Read it below...
Our attention has been drawn to fake stories making the rounds on the Internet and social media about former Rivers State Governor Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi. The stories are all what they are- concocted and failed attempts to ridicule the person and achievements of Rt. Hon. Amaechi. Our initial reaction was to ignore them, but to clear the doubts of those concerned we have decided to issue this statement.
There
is absolutely no truth in fabricated story saying Amaechi has an
account with a Bank in Minnesota, USA; same as the concocted write-up
alleging that CNN’s Christiane Amanpour accused Amaechi of corruption.
They even went ahead to say Amaechi wrote to Bancorp and another bank in
Switzerland stating that the said funds were deposited in error. This
is absolutely false.
It
is important for the public to note that no such account or accounts
exists. There is also no story of Amanpour linking the former governor
with any corruption issue or case whatsoever, not on CNN or any verified
news source or website associated with Amanpour.
These
are all lies, concocted in an attempt to put the public against the
acclaimed people’s governor whose achievements as governor of Rivers
State speaks volumes and drew admiration and accolades from within and
outside Nigeria.
All
these fictitious stories are the product of the ill imaginations of
wicked and unscrupulous people opposed to Amaechi; those jealous and at
unease with his continued rise in the country and beyond; those whose
life ambition is to pull-Amaechi-down.
We therefore urge the people to discard and disregard the unfounded rumours. They are all fake.
