Rotimi Amaechi, the Minister of Transportation, has blamed former president Goodluck Jonathan’s administration for rise in banditry in Nigeria.

Amaechi, speaking on ‘Hard Copy’ a Channels Television programme, said banditry became rampant because of the poverty created by the past administration.

He claimed the money Jonathan left for Nigeria after he left office in May 2015, was not enough to run the country for three weeks.

The ex-Governor of Rivers State said: “When you talk about bandits and all these people that kill, it’s a question about poverty and it did not start in this regime.

“As former chairman of the governors’ forum, I was told by the security in a meeting chaired by the former President including the former minister of finance that at every point in time, the government must leave money behind in case Nigeria goes to war that would last for six months.

“By the time we came, they didn’t leave money behind that could last us for three weeks. And I was speaking at that time as the chairman of the governors’ forum.”
