Groups Thronged Turban Occasion To Mobilise Support For Amaechi For President In 2023

Amaechi for President banners flood Daura.

The Emir of Daura, HRH Faruk Umar Faruk, yesterday, in Daura, Katsina State prayed for the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, whom he described as a goal getter, to attain a higher office.

The revered Emir prayed the prayer while honoring Amaechi with the title  of ‘Dan Amanar Daura’,  meaning the trusted son of Daura.

The occasion  was attended by eminent people from across Nigeria and those campaigning for the Minister as President ahead of the 2023 polls who flooded the town with ‘Amaechi for President’ banners.

The Emir said:“We are gathered here to reciprocate the kind gesture done to us by the  Hon Minister of Transportation, Chibuke Rotimi Amaechi, for his whole hearted love and support for us. 

Therefore, it is binding on the Daura traditional emirate to acknowledge the kind gesture. My prayer is for God to give you a higher office.”

Faruk said the Daura Emirate conferred the title on Amaechi also in recognition of his contributions to the socio-economic development of the country, especially for ensuring that a Transportation University is sited in Daura as well as ensuring that the Kano-Maradi Standard Gauge Railway line passes through Daura.

“We don’t give title because you have money. We give you  considering your sacrifices and impact on people’s lives, and impact on community and the nation at large,”the monarch said.

AYU-You Were Brought From The Gutter, From Nothing-Governor Nyesom Wike To Senator Iyorchia Ayu (The PDP Chairman)

On Thursday, the Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike replied the chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Iyorchia Ayu by blasting him for referring to some members of the party as children. While speaking in an interview with BBC Hausa on Wednesday, Ayu said those demanding his resignation are children.  “When we started the PDP journey, we did not see these children. They are children who do not know why we established this party,” he had said.  We will not allow one person to come and destroy our party." Speaking on Thursday at the inauguration of roads in Ikwerre LGA of the state, Wike said those who Ayu described as children brought him from nothing to be chairman of the party.  He said if Ayu remains arrogant and refuses to resign, it may cost the PDP the 2023 presidential election.  “You can imagine what power can do. You can imagine how ingratitude — how people can be ingrates in their lives,” Wike said.  “I thought as a chairman of a party who want...
