President Buhari Allegedly Ordered Amaechi, Fashola And Abba Kyari To Resign

President Muhammadu Buhari has allegedly ordered the resignation of the former Governor of Rivers State who is
now the Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi.

Also alleged to have been asked to resign are Minister of Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola and

Chief of Staff to the president, Abba Kyari over various allegations of corruption, DAILY POST exclusively
gathered.

A source in the Presidential Villa told DAILY POST that Buhari worried that having these persons in his cabinet
could put so much to question about his personality and frustrate the present anti-corruption war had advised
them to quietly resign.


The source also said the President reminded them of his earlier warning that if he sacked any of his appointees,
such would be prosecuted. It would be recalled that there had been several
allegations of corruption flying in and outside the media about Ameachi.



 A leading Newspaper in the United
Kingdom, UK, ‘The Mail Daily,’ on Sunday, May 15, 2016 published a report revealing how Rotimi Amaechi
allegedly looted Nigeria’s treasury.
The report claimed that President Muhammadu Buhari’s ‘fantastically corrupt” friend, spent over $140 million on the president’s 2015 campaign and has been accused of stealing £500 million.

Also a Judicial Commission of Inquiry in Rivers State had allegedly indicted the former governor for looting the treasury of the state, when he served as Governor for eight years. Amaechi had, however, denied these various allegations.


His contemporary, Babatunde Fashola, had equally been petitioned over mismanagement of Lagos state funds. It
would be recalled that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, was petitioned by the Civil
Society Network Against Corruption, a coalition of anti- corruption organisations in Nigeria, over an alleged “questionable expenditures” of the administration of Babatunde Fashola.

He allegedly approved before he left office, N78.3 million from the state’s treasury for an upgrade of his personal website, an allegation he had
since denied.
Relatively, it has been alleged that the Chief of Staff (CoS), Abba Kyari, took N500m from operators of MTN
to help the telecommunications giant mitigate the fine imposed on it by the federal government.

The chief of staff was also allegedly involved in a deal of taking money from Jide Omokore, a shady businessman
who was allegedly involved in corruption in the oil sector
during the preceding administration.
”The president has been waiting patiently for them to resign,’’ The source stressed.

When DAILY POST contacted the Senior Special Adviser to the president on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu,
he simply said in a text message thus; ‘’I am sorry I am in Abuja and I can’t confirm or deny the report with the
president who is now in London. If you can leave me out of this, I will appreciate.’’
