The party in a statement signed by its state chairman, Davis Ikanya, said the plot was leaked to them by a patriotic Nigerian working in the presidency, adding that the plot is intended to present Governor Amaechi, who is also the Director General of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, as a power-hungry and corrupt politician.
The statement said: “Nothing could be further from the truth. Having sponsored the production and airing of similar discredited documentaries on APC presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd), and the party’s national leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the PDP-led presidency and President Goodluck Jonathan’s strategists believe that Governor Amaechi is the next APC backbone to be targeted in this diabolical and desperate but futile attempt to stop APC’s march to victory in the March 28 presidential election.”
The party said Amaechi has no skeletons in his cupboard and has nothing to be afraid of, having served the people of Rivers State to the best of his ability in almost eight years.
“We, therefore, wish to warn those behind this devilish and invidious plot to desist from executing it. We also wish to issue advance warning to media houses that may be tempted by the lure of lucre to promote or broadcast any satanic documentary on Governor Amaechi to perish the thought or prepare to meet us in court,” it said.
