The Senator representing Rivers South-East in the National Assembly, Magnus Abe, has revealed that the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, cannot force him out of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
Abe, who spoke on Sunday, at a rally he organised in Gokana, told his supporters that he was not joining issues with Amaechi.
Recall, that Amaechi and Abe have been having a running battle, over who controls the political power in the Rivers State chapter of the APC.
Abe said: “We are not disputing the leadership of Amaechi in the APC in Rivers State, but there were issues in the party. People are saying that the ambition of Senator Magnus Abe to be Governor, is the problem in the party.
“And that they have asked Senator Abe to wait, let us build the party, and Senator Abe refused to wait; he said he must be Governor, and it is scattering the party.
“I want to stand in front of my people to say to you, that story is not true. People have said that we got the ticket to go to the Senate to become whatever we want to be, because the leader said so.”
