Gov
Rotimi Amaechi, who is also the DG of the APC campaign organization has accused
the PDP of paying some Christian clerics N6billion to campaign againts the APC
and its presidential candidate, Gen Buhari. Amaechi made the allegation during
the state's APC governorship candidate, Dr Dakuku Adol Peterside's campaign in
Emohua local government area of Rivers State today.
"Some pastors
collected N6 billion and they are circulating documents and telling you not to
vote for an Hausa man, not to vote for a Muslim because they want to Islamise
Nigeria. Tell them to return our N6 billion.
They gave them N6 billion. They
should return it to the Federal Government coffers. They will tell you that
Buhari wants to Islamise Nigeria. Tell them we are too educated. I am a
Catholic, but no Catholic priest has told me that story right now in the
Catholic Church, because I will ask him how. If any Pastor tells you that, tell him to return
the money. Nobody can Islamise Nigeria. They have commercialized Jesus Christ.
They should stop commercializing Jesus Christ. He is our Lord and Saviour. You
know what Jesus Christ did in the temple. He chased them away. We shall chase
away those pastors who collected money from PDP leaders to tell us lies. We
shall chase them away on behalf of our Lord Jesus Christ.” he said
