Rather, Amaechi was the person who solicited to meet with a local official of the German government.<\/p>\n<p>The party further insists that all the media propaganda about Amaechi&#8217;s visit to Germany was only aimed at deceiving Rivers people from questioning his frequent overseas trips.<\/p>\n<p>It is laughable that\u00a0 Amaechi is still studying how to build low cost houses, vocational studies and other methods of German education, 6 years as a governor of Rivers State\u00e2\u20ac\u009d the party asserted.<\/p>\n<p>When will Amaechi settle down and deliver on his campaign promises? ACN further queried.<\/p>\n<p>The party said the failure of Amaechi to deliver on his promises and recorded as embarking on about 200 overseas trips, without tangible results, in the name of study tours, underscores his lack of vision.<\/p>\n<p>It called on Amaechi to bring to bear on Rivers people and economy of the state the benefits of his foreign trips to justify the tax payers money spent on the numerous overseas trips.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Rivers State Chapter of the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN says the State Government lied that the government of Germany invited the governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi on&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4414,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4410","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
