FCT, Abuja – The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) on Friday, October 11, condemned Rotimi Amaechi, former minister of transportation, over âinsensitive, god-awful and unpatrioticâ comments.
TimesNow.com.ng had reported how Amaechi asserted that he had expected strong reactions from citizens, particularly the youths.
Amaechi lamented the high cost of living, rising fuel prices, and other economic pressures.
But reacting via a statement by Felix Morka, its spokesperson, the APC accused Amaechi of âattempting to hoodwink Nigerians into his web of false empathy and incitement to violenceâ.
The ruling party said the âonly real angerâ that Amaechi must feel is that he is not presently in the saddle of government.

Earlier, TimesNow.com.ng reported that Amaechi commented on the political crisis rocking the state, particularly on the rift between Governor Siminalayi Fubara and the immediate past governor Nyesom Wike.
Amaechi maintained that Governor Fubara appeared to be more popular than Wike because he is anti-Wike, and many of the people in the state are tired of the current federal capital territory (FCT) minister.
