Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, says he is not tribalistic, thus encouraged President Muhammadu Buhari instead of the predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan at 2015.
Buhari emerged President, beating incumbent, Jonathan.
Amaechi, speaking in Port Harcourt on Saturday clarified that whatever he says in Rivers State could happen, adding that he would soon return to announce prayers in the state.
“You know, when Goodluck fought us, he was not fighting me, he had been fighting God and I knew he would fail.
“Inform them from next year prayer will start, I will come to Port Harcourt like I used to come and I will say that this will happen and it will take place.
“Let me inform you that I am; I don’t drink, I have never tasted alcohol in my entire life, I really don’t smoke; I am not tribalistic. Whether in Rivers State or in Nigeria, I am not tribalistic.
‘If I were tribalistic, President Goodluck Jonathan offered me the chance to remain in PDP, he offered me all sort of chances and I stated I have given my allegiance to Buhari since I am not tribalistic.”
