Wike explained that Amaechi was planning the evil act in liaison with some compromised military and police officers.
The governor also declared Friday, February 15, 2019 as public holiday for Rivers people to pray for God’s intervention in ensuring that the elections were peaceful.
In a state broadcast on Thursday ahead of the general elections, Wike said credible intelligence revealed the plot of the minister.
The governor said, “Credible intelligence has linked Rotimi Amaechi and his cohorts in the factionalised APC with plans to prevent the peaceful conduct of the general elections in Rivers State with the support of some unpatriotic military and police officers.”
He said several Hilux vehicles painted in military colours and gunboats donated by a top official of Nigeria Ports Authority had been handed over to the militants to carry out the attacks across the state.
Wike expressed worry over what he described as needless threats of violence by the Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Council at the party’s last presidential rally on Tuesday in Port Harcourt.
The governor described the internal crisis rocking the APC in the state as the consequence of Amaechi’s arrogance and refusal to follow due process.
“It is therefore most unfortunate that instead of using internal party mechanisms to settle the festering crisis before it was too late, Rotimi Amaechi chose to act with impunity and is now hunted by the unpleasant outcomes of his arrogance and disdain for due process.
“Even at that, the Supreme Court has spoken and the only rational path left for Rotimi Amaechi is to recognise the fact that justice has prevailed over impunity,” he added.
The governor, however, advised him to be political mature to accept the consistent decisions of the courts in good faith and wait for 2023 elections.
