The Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Caretaker Committee, in Rivers State, Tony Okocha has revealed that the former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi has warned the party leadership against inviting him to any party activities.

Okocha disclosed this during a press conference on Tuesday in Abuja, saying the former Governor has remained incommunicado since he completed his law school.

He stated: “You will recall that at some point he got into law school and from the one year in law school, he became incommunicado.

“You are also aware that at some point after the Presidential primary election, he also decided to disappear into thin air.

“So whether he is a party member or not, I wouldn’t know. Of all the meetings we called… I will give you an instance, there is this particular meeting we called for former governors and others, he sent a message to the Secretary of the party and warned him that he should never dare to send him a message about the party again. So should we go to his house and pack him?.”

On the insinuation that the loyalty of the leadership of the party is to the Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Okocha described the insinuation as laughable.
