Amaechi, has disclosed that unnamed leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) paid N6 billion to Christian clerics to campaign against the All
Progressives Congress (APC) and its presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu
Buhari.
Governor Amaechi, who is the Director-General of Buhari Campaign Organisation, expressed surprise that “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.”
Amaechi also stated that the presidential election would be a referendum between him and President Goodluck Jonathan.

“I
told the President (Dr. Jonathan) that the presidential election in Rivers
State is a referendum between him and me. I told him anywhere I go, I will show
what I have done. Let him show what he has done.”
