He’s A Political Orphan — APC Blasts Amaechi For Attacking Tinubu

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has dismissed claims by former Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi, that Nigerians can unite to defeat President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 election.

In a strongly worded statement issued on Wednesday, the party’s spokesperson, Mogaji Seye Oladejo, described Amaechi’s comments as “political hallucination” and a reflection of his waning relevance.

Oladejo mocked Amaechi as a “political orphan” who has been “disowned in Rivers State” and lacks the influence to spearhead any national mobilisation.

According to him, “Amaechi is free to dream, but he must stop mistaking his nightmares for national reality. He has lost his structure, lost his followers, and lost his voice — yet he now wants to lead Nigerians in mobilisation.”

He further ridiculed the former minister’s political standing, saying:

“In Rivers today, mentioning Amaechi’s name in political discussions is a joke. Who exactly does he plan to mobilise — the few loyalists left in his WhatsApp group or the politicians who deserted him after his failed presidential bid? You cannot lead a national movement when your own backyard has padlocked its gates against you.”
