Chief Medical Director of the University of Port Harcourt Teaching Hospital, Prof. Henry Ugboma, says tarnishing former Governor of the state, Chibuike Amaechi’s image was Wike’s sole agenda before he was sworn in as Governor.
Prof. Ugboma who was a member of Wike’s transition team, made the allegation during a live TV interview on Monday.
The CMD, said he noticed it as a member of the PDP, and that was the reason he left the party.
“I was a member of the transition committee set up by Wike immediately after the election to marshal out and put together things that will destroy the honourable Minister of Transportation, and Governor Wike immediately set us to task, that we must derive, contrived things that will mess up Amaechi and destroy him politically, and make sure that he doesn’t take up any political position in the country,” he said.
“I can rightly tell you that the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike has this paranoid issue against the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi. I noticed this as a member of the Peoples’ Democratic Party and that was one of the reasons I left the party, he added.
