Money Jonathan left behind couldn’t sustain Nigeria three weeks -Amaechi

The Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, says the money left behind for Nigeria by former President Goodluck Jonathan at the point of his departure on May 29, 2015 was not enough to run the affairs of the country for three weeks.

Amaechi, who is a former Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum, said this on a Channels Television’s programme titled, ‘Hard Copy’, which was monitored byThe former governor of Rivers State claimed that while he headed the governors’ forum, he was informed by Presidency officials that there was virtually nothing left in the treasury.

The minister added, “When you talk about bandits and all these people that kill. It is a question about poverty. And that poverty didn’t start in this regime. Don’t forget that oil was sold at $110, $114, $115 per barrel. When this government came into power, oil fell to $28 per barrel and since then it has not gone above $80 per barrel.

“As former chairman of the governors’ forum, I was told by the security in a meeting chaired by the former President including the former minister of finance that at every point in time, the government must leave money behind in case Nigeria goes to war that would last for six months.

At least he left something, the debt Buhari is accumulating generations to come will continue to pay.

At least he left something. What MBuhari will be leaving for his successor is a thunderous debt.

Ok let's hope to see the one bubu will left behind..and the unpaid loan he will live behind

Amechi you are a big fool for making that statement Jonathan left enough money in the reserve, how will it be enough when your government is sponsoring terrorism, abduction, Islamization of Nigeria.

Isorait, let's wait for the gbese your oga on top MBuhari would leave behind. Old men just open their mouths and yarn bollocks

Could that be talk

The man does not make sense. Goodluck did not have the duty of generating money for Nigeria or is he saying that Goodluck stole money? The nation generates it's own money.

Ameachi is the Angel of False hood. He knows he is no more in good terms with Buhari and the Den of thieves now he is looking for what to cook up

Same amaechi clown

Almost 7yrs into this ill fated administration you people are still doing your usual propaganda. !!

The Prodigals! No amount left behind would ever be enough to embezzle.

Ka ji dan renin wayo ko

The misguided fool again

Lies Lies Lies !!! This propaganda loving Government would have said it since then ..if it was true

Ofcourse... coz those who queue to loot it are just too much

Jonathan accumulated 51 trillion, more than any president, but he didn't build any road, no bridge, no hospital, no electricity, no refinery, nothing, just looting and sharing..

Apart from looting and destroying the economy, they borrowed to pay salary till their last day in office, states couldn't pay salaries, thank God PMB offered salary bail out loans. Many Nigerians are very clueless per how bad things were and how close they were to disaster.

You conspired with other governors to share the money Jonathan saved. You are a bad leader. Any leader that focuses on politics than progress is a bad leader. After APC we shall know where you will be. Ngozi Okonjo shouted and shouted but falls of deaf ears of Governors.

NGRPresident MBuhari ChibuikeAmaechi This is exactly what we have been saying, that NG has no economy. Govt is supposed to be sustained on the taxes of working people. That's the reason OfficialAPCNg made Restructuring its 1 promise as shown in the attached Manifesto...1/

Born and shaped in stealing.

How long would the debt that would be left behind by the present administration sustain Nigeria?

One-day i mean one day

We want to see what you will leave behind when you guys leave office.

So how did Buhari manage?🤔

This man is a foolani servant, so he even left shomtin, almost 8years it's still gej this gej that. Gettat all of you efulefus

When we published that the Nigerian Government is no different from a criminal enterprise, some took offense and pointed out that we were destroying Nigeria's reputation (as if). They encouraged TwitterBan but failed to learn about Afghanistan.

These bastards shared all the money they met in the vault when thier dictator came into power. They donated money to bring thier cow president and of course they recouped thier investments beyond what any nigerian could imagine. Talks like this only sheds more light to the truth.

President GEJonathan left money behind but you're leaving debt behind. You're very sick upstairs Sir

Who is dropping mkpụrụ mmiri near Amaechi's house?

A FAILURE will also look for whom to be blame for their failures.

Not this looting bastard amaechi again

Loan buhari will leave behind after his tenure end won't sustain the economy for one month.

What is even wrong with Amaechi and APC, how on earth are you still trying to justify your failures on past leaders.what was the reason Nigerians voted you I feel so unhappy reading trash like this from ministers in a country once regarded as giant of Africa

As per Spender 🤑 - lavish big boy wey una b

What are you still waiting for, buy RichQuack now let's you money grow RichQUACK 1000xgem 1inch QUACKarmy

So long your a Zoo citizen this is what you will continue to hear, even if PDP win in 2023 the will still tell you story can't you reason are you this foolish?

Thieves

It's just like looking for an ogboni man with the fear of God

This the Amechi who did even gave the government that succeeded him in River State ordinary handling over note such a person can open their mouth and summonize because we have lazy media and docile citizens.

And the money your APC government will leave behind after 2023 will take us to the next millennium right?

Leave that old idiot alone, him and his party will never stop blaming game until they leave office, he thought he can still use the same tactics to get back to Aso rock come 2023 it wouldn’t work, APC and all it party members are failures and clueless

Let's assume it is true, the question is how much is Buhari leaving behind, if Buhari has left us without one naira it would have been better but he is going to leave us with trillions of dollar debt

Always looking for excuses to defend their failure.

A part full of crimes keep looking for excuses, your cup's is full we are just waiting for one pilots helicopter or jet that can sacrifices for Nigeria on the air,or COVID 19,we don't know is happening in ASU Villa, scammers.

How about the debt your administration is potentially gonna leave for the next government? This is very unfortunate of you.

Na why una use the whole Nigerians borrow money lol 😂

Best president ever. Y'all were conveniently beating an empty drum wah dd u Y'all expect? Jokers..

What a disgraceful Government. If after six years your child can't walk, how bad and unhappy would you be even though you waited years before having the baby? We just want a Government that don't look backward but forward only

That is not true 😕

Na wah o…dis our country self

And how much will Buhari leave behind? Nothing byt debts

You have been in charge for 5 years bro. A child born at the inception of your administration should be getting ready to get into grade 1 now.

Mischievous lot...you and Oshiomole were at that time shouting and ranting against Okonjo Iweala to share the money in Sovereign wealth fund account. Weren't you a member of the NEC?

Sasha03545351 The Question we should ask is how much did Jonathan left behind because At this point we need to know who is Lying.

But he left money behind even if it's to sustain Nigeria for a day! The debts Buhari will leave behind, how many years will it take Nigeria to pay back?

He even left something. Na negative account buhari go leave.

And now we are being saddled with debts

Useless government

after how many years Mr. amaechi? Remember under Buhari no December salary!!!

What of you that left nothing as governor of Rivers state? A man that decided to squander the remaining funds on a charade of an election

8 years later they are still on GEJ.. shame.. But people where eating 3 good meals during GEJ time, today what is wrong? Still GEJ

Twitter should have a thumbs down 👎 or a heartbreak💔 icon added to the retweet button and all that 🤦🏾‍♂️

Aren't you guys tired of this same old script of what Jonathan did or didn't do... You should focus more on telling us what this administration is doing

Oh so Jonathan even left money at all. Amaechi when you were a Governor, you were the leading candidate against Jonathan Govt saving for Nigeria. You and your colleagues forced the Federal Govt to share monies that were meant to be saved. WeWontForget

All these damage control you all are doing because of your supreme leader's incompetence and ineptitude is just ridiculous.

We, are waiting for the Boss to hand over.

Because of how you were spending!

ZamfaraNewMedia What do u expect from a gov borrowing to pay salaries? I am even suprise it sustained 🇳🇬 4 such period. How on earth will any country borrow to pay salary? lack of leadership is the only reason why a gov will be borrowing to pay salaries while A minister is wear a bra that cost

They are still on GEJ's name; I pity Amaechi Shebi Buhari go finish him tenure; he will now be too embarrassed to talk with his people Licking Fulani man Anus for Political gains

But u guys will be leaving us in huge debt now... Who we offend?

Who be that madt man wey dey lick dem ass?
