Former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has said that even though former President Muhammadu Buhari did not achieve everything, he still did better than the current administration of President Bola Tinubu.
Amaechi stated this on Thursday during an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television.
“Not everything was achieved. Buhari will tell you that he did not achieve all that he planned for. But then, he was better than the current government by all standards,” he said.
The former Rivers State Governor said Buhari outperformed Tinubu in security and institutional independence areas
“In terms of security, Buhari focused on it. In transportation, I’m open to a new challenge. Again, the independence of INEC was higher in Buhari’s government than now.
“Now, they can’t even register a party because government officials are telling them not to. Those who applied to INEC for registration — their rents have expired,” he said.
He explained that his criticism of President Tinubu was not personal, stressing that he would have been the first to sing the President’s praises if the administration was performing well.
