'Presidency not soup kitchen for destitutes like Amaechi'- APC slams ADC VP candidate
The party said Amaechi seeks office to regain access to public resources and mocked his reported financial hardship after leaving government.
- On Sunday, the All Progressives Congress issued a statement mocking Rotimi Amaechi, the African Democratic Congress vice-presidential candidate, over his claims of financial hardship and inability to afford medication for his late mother, Dame Ezinne Mary Oduah Amaechi.
- A former two-term Governor of Rivers State and Minister of Transportation, Amaechi is currently the ADC's vice-presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections, positioning himself against President Bola Tinubu and the APC.
- APC National Publicity Secretary Felix Morka described Amaechi as a "loafer" who failed to remain productive outside public office, asserting he "freeloaded at the highest levels of public office" for four decades.
- Morka declared, "The presidency is not a soup kitchen and will not be a soup kitchen for Rotimi Amaechi," while questioning his fitness for office and accusing him of seeking the vice presidency to regain access to public resources.
- The party further mocked Amaechi's claim that his mother died at 89 due to his inability to afford treatment, suggesting he lacks responsibility to fend for himself outside government patronage.
