Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, Babachir Lawal, has revealed that ex-Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, worked harder for the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential ticket for the 2027 general elections.
In a continuous trade of words with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, the ex-SGF insisted that the ADC primary election that produced Atiku was massively rigged.
Lawal contrasted Amaechi’s activities with what he described as Atiku’s low-profile approach to the contest.
“Someone like Rotimi Amaechi was very confident that if we go to primaries he would win. Everybody around him was extremely confident that Amaechi would win.
“Among the three candidates, Amaechi was the one moving around, working hard to see that he got the ticket,” Lawal said.
Recall that before he dumped the ADC, the ex-SGF alleged that the primary election that produced Atiku was massively rigged, insisting that he has evidence to support his claims.
