2027: I’ll End Corruption Within One Month If Elected President – Says Amaechi
Former Minister of Transportation and ex-Governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, has vowed that if elected President of Nigeria in 2027, he will amend the constitution and eradicate corruption within his first month in office.
Speaking during an X Space session titled Weekend Politics, Amaechi declared that should he fail to end corruption within that timeframe, he would resign from the presidency.
“If I become President, I will change the constitution from indigeneship to citizenship. If I do not end corruption in Nigeria within one month, I will tender my resignation,” he reportedly said.
The former APC chieftain also alleged that some influential Nigerians frequently visit the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to embezzle funds.
Amaechi also said he has never participated in election rigging, adding that he has consistently turned down appointments to serve on APC election planning committees.
“I tell you, I’ve not had an election against Tinubu. I know Tinubu very well. I know his strengths. I know his weaknesses. And I know that if allowed to fly the flag of ADC, I will defeat Tinubu for sure,” he said.
“I challenge any politician, living or dead, to come forward and say I was part of rigging.
