Ex-minister Amaechi dumps APC, says Tinubu can’t govern Nigeria
2nd July 2025
A former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has resigned from the All Progressives Congress.
Amaechi stated that Nigeria is in a state of total collapse and urgently needs a complete overhaul.
Speaking on Wednesday in Abuja at the unveiling of the African Democratic Congress interim executive, Amaechi accused the APC and the Independent National Electoral Commission of working together to hijack upcoming elections.
“Nigeria is completely destroyed. People can’t eat. People can’t buy food. There’s no money to buy food. Everything is gone. Inflation is at its peak,” he said.
Amaechi confirmed that he left the APC on Tuesday night and expressed surprise that he hadn’t already been expelled, saying he had previously warned party leaders not to invite him to any more meetings.
“You can’t be in a club where the majority of people are stealing and you don’t say anything,” he said.
On why he’s pushing for a change instead of supporting the current government, he said the problem is not just about changing the ruling party but fixing Nigeria itself.
