People of Niger Delta can’t intimidate Nigeria – Amaechi

The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, on Monday said Niger

Delta people cannot intimidate the entire country by their persistent

wrong actions, stressing that the region is part of the country.

Amaechi said this at a town hall meeting organised by the Minister of

Information and Culture in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State.

According to the Minister, the region cannot continue to do the same

thing and expect a different result.

He said,"It is part of a nation called Nigeria. You cannot continue to

shoot against yourselves and think you will survive.

"You cannot continue to do the things you are doing and expect a

different result. You cannot intimidate Nigerians. Don't forget I was

governor; I was never intimidated in Rivers state.

"So if we are fighting a cause, can we now sit down and know what that

cause is, who will be the beneficiary, what we did when we had the

opportunity to make decisions? Now you are saying, 'Ask them.''
