Amaechi To Wike: If You Keep Daring Me, I Will Expose Your Wife

The no-love-lost relationship between Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, and Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has taken a turn for the worst with the former threatening to “expose” Wike’s wife if he keeps daring him.

The once powerful political allies have become bitter enemies in the buildup to the 2015 general elections after Amaechi decamped from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the fledging All Progressives Congress (APC).

Speaking to journalists after inspecting facilities at the Kaduna Inland Dry Port on Tuesday, the former Rivers State governor who did not disclose what it is Wike’s wife is “guilty” off, but said Wike should stop talking about his own wife.

“The problem with Nyesom Wike and I want to say it clearly that if he does not shut up his mouth and do his work, I will bring his wife into focus.

“I have been very matured not to bring his wife out but if Wike does not close his mouth and talk about my wife anymore, I would bring out his wife,” Amaechi threatened.

He said: “They have a governor who is a child. By accident of Goodluck Jonathan because I don’t want to attribute it to God but by whatever, he entered office and starts talking about my wife and family.

“When I was a governor, nobody had access to government business, not even my wife and siblings. Even as minister, nobody had access to government business because it is not a family business but a government business.

On whether his wife collected any contract or money, Amaechi said: “my wife would never to that. We don’t do family business. All I care about is transparency, my wife is a trader, she buys and sells and Wike knows that.”
