The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused former Rivers State governor and former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi of inciting violence.
The party said this in reaction to calls for protests against fuel price hike by Amaechi.
In a statement signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, on Friday, the APC accused Amaechi of stoking violence in Nigeria instead of working to resolve the crisis engulfing Rivers State which he once governed.
Weaponizing protest and exploiting citizen’s economic discomfort for selfish political objective, as these partisan tribesmen are doing, is irresponsible and decidedly unpatriotic.
”The party also urged Nigerians to dismiss the statement by Amaechi.
There have been controversies since the Tinubu-led administration increased the fuel price to N1030 per litre, after increasing to price to N898 per litre earlier.
