The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, has claimed that his immediate predecessor and Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi was behind the plot to remove and prosecute Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Walter Onnoghen.

Wike, who is at loggerheads with Amaechi, made the claim while addressing thousands of Peoples Democratic Party supporters during the PDP State Campaign Rally at Eleme on Thursday.

The governor said that Amaechi, who is the Director General of the Buhari Campaign Organisation, made the confession in a meeting with an All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain in Abuja last Monday.

Amaechi was quoted as saying that he would “destroy” Onnoghen for bringing Jonathan down.

Wike said, “At that meeting in Abuja last Monday, he confessed that he was the person behind the illegal crisis facing the CJN. He bragged that he will destroy the CJN the way he brought former President Goodluck Jonathan down.

“He wants to destroy the nation’s judiciary. This particular evil will finally consume Amaechi.”

Wike further queried Amaechi for constantly describing the PDP as a party of thieves when he was Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly for eight years and Governor of Rivers for eight years all under the platform of the PDP.
