2023: Group urges Amaechi to join presidential race

National Conscience Group (NCG), an NGO, has called on the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, to heed the clarion call to national service and declare interest to contest the 2023 presidential election.

The Spokesperson of the group, Mr Jubril Ekwote, made the call in a statement made available to newsmen on Monday in Abuja.

The group said should Amaechi fail to declare his presidential interest, he should be ready to explain to over 150 millions Nigerians in court why he does not want to serve his fatherland in that capacity.

He said Nigeria would be at a crossroads come 2023, stating that Amaechi had paid the supreme price for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He added that Amaechi had invested in the APC and has staked his head and neck for the APC once upon a time, adding that he was the arrow head of the change that came.
