 •Former Minister Rotimi Amaechi resigns from APC, says Nigeria needs systemic change, not regime change

  • Blames APC, INEC for collapse of governance, accuses Tinubu administration of worsening hardship

  • Calls for a nationwide citizens’ movement to reclaim Nigeria, rejects return to status quo politics

Rt. Hon. Rotimi Amaechi, former Minister of Transportation and ex-Governor of Rivers State, has officially resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC), declaring that Nigeria is in ruins and in need of a full structural overhaul.

Amaechi made the announcement on Wednesday in Abuja during the unveiling of the interim executive leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC). In a blistering address, he blamed the APC and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for what he described as the destruction of governance, rising poverty, and institutional collapse across the country.

“Things have gone so bad that Nigerians can’t even afford to eat,” he said. “There’s no money, inflation is at its peak, and people are suffering in silence.”

Amaechi disclosed that he tendered his resignation from the APC on Tuesday night, adding that he had previously warned the party not to invite him to any meetings. “I’m surprised I wasn’t expelled. I wrote to them — don’t even invite me,” he stated.

Responding to questions about his rejection of the Tinubu administration, Amaechi said: “I have never believed that Tinubu is a material to govern the country. Now people want Buhari back. That’s how bad things have become.”

He added that Nigeria’s economic conditions have worsened drastically under the current administration, pointing to the depreciation of the naira. “During Buhari, the dollar was about ₦460. Now it is ₦1,580 — that’s more than 100% jump,” he lamented.

He dismissed claims that the exchange rate crisis was a deliberate government policy. “Any policy that doesn’t prioritise the people is not a policy. President Tinubu said he’s not here to make Nigerians happy.”

When asked if his stance was politically motivated, Amaechi replied, “It’s not about changing the government, it’s about changing Nigeria. We need a movement — not just a party — that allows Nigerians themselves to take over governance.”

Amaechi insisted he is not overambitious. “I have the right to be ambitious,” he said bluntly.
