Rivers state governor, Rotimi Amaechi has said that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), will be re-branded ahead of the 2015 presidential election.
Speaking this morning on Channels Television sunrise morning show in his capacity as the Director-General of General Muhammadu Buhari Campaign Organisation, Gov Amaechi has said that the Buhari Campaign would have a different outlook.
He noted that work had already started in this regard, as they have shown the public that APC Presidential candidate is a family man, contrary to the image of him “as if he doesn’t smile and the man makes the best jokes anybody can hear”.
“We are trying to sell to you a man who, though 70, is more fit than others and most other people who are competing with him.
“You saw him on the day we matched against the impunity of the President and he joined us to match from the Eagles Square to Hilton, back to the Police Headquarters, stood out there till we closed 6pm.”
Governor Amaechi also addressed the allegations against him that he has been funding the presidential campaign of his party with vigour despite owing salaries of workers in his state.
“Now I have an appointment as the DG of Buhari campaign, I will not make a careless statement that I have no facts on,” condemning statements credited to a Presidential Spokesman alleging that he was funding the campaign.
“I have never owed salaries whether of teachers or cleaners,” he said.
