A former publicity secretary of the defunct New People’s Democratic Party, nPDP, Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, has responded to a recent claim by Tony Okocha, wherein he said that Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi is no longer a member of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Okocha, while addressing the press in Abuja during the week, claimed that Amaechi, a former Rivers State Governor, warned the party leadership against inviting him for any political activities.
Eze, in a statement on Thursday, said he was setting straight the records, urging Nigerians to ignore Okocha’s statement, which he called a fabrication.
He said Okocha is just a “licensed merchant of falsehood and seasoned smear campaigner with a natural certification in Pull-Him-Own-Syndrome (PHD), a qualification that endears him so much to paymasters whose penchants run antithetical to good governance and democracy.”
Eze said that Okocha seems to have lost his cognitive orientation, which is a probable reason for “his very weird, ridiculous and tediously pointless loquacity that goes to no merit and it is only appropriate that people round him bound him in chains and help him to the psychiatric to assess his mental health in his own interest.”
He added that Okocha’s recent confession in a viral social media video that he used to write election results, qualifies him for an urgent invitation by security agencies for questioning and this would have been the case if ours was a sane society.
“But unfortunately, we live in a society where insane, morally bereft and psychopathic patients roam about freely, endangering the entire human species and corrupting public manners,” he added.
Eze said that Okocha is just seeking attention, which the former transportation minister is not ready to give him.
The APC chieftain restated that without the likes of Amaechi, there would not have been APC anywhere, adding that his contributions are undisputed and are there even for the blind to see.
He stressed that “Amaechi had never at any time announced his exit from the APC and, as such, remained the leader of the party” and urged the public to disregard Okocha, whom he called a “hired imposter and political jobber whose house serves as the Rumuigbo Psychiatric Hospital annex.”
