Contrary to reports that the Minister of
Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi was physically assaulted by members of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), in Madrid Spain, on Friday, the
media office of Amaechi has refuted the claim in a statement.
“It’s a lie. IPOB did not ‘beat’ the Minister of Transformation,
Rotimi Amaechi. We must clarify that in the incident of the attack
yesterday on the Minister in Madrid, where Amaechi was part of the
official Nigerian government delegation to the United Nations (UN)
climate change conference (COP25), IPOB members did not “beat”,
physically assault or cause any bodily harm to the honourable Minister”
it noted.
The statement stated further that the claim credited to the group’s spokesperson, Emma Powerful was false.
Part of the statement reads “ We read with utter disgust and disdain
the sickening propagandist lies credited to one Emma Powerful, who
claims to be the Spokesman of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), that
IPOB members in Madrid, Spain “beat” (physically assaulted) the Minister
of Transportation Rt. Hon. Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi. That is not true.
“As they charged towards and at the minister during the attack, it
was apparent that they planned to “beat” (quoting Emma Powerful) him,
hurt him, cause bodily harm or even do worse! But their violent evil
plot failed woefully due to the dexterity of Amaechi to resist them,
protect and defend himself, and the prompt intervention of the Spanish
police who repelled the motley crowd of misguided attackers. Even the
video circulated online by the attackers confirmed this much. Everyone
could hear one of them shouting, “We didn’t get him…” expressing his
frustrations of their inability to get and “beat” the Minister.
“We must commend the Spanish police in Madrid for their timely
intervention to protect Amaechi and their investigation of the attack
and attempt on the life of the honourable minister in Spanish territory.
“The honourable minister of Transportation is immensely grateful to
all for the outpour of love, support, and prayers. He acknowledges God’s
hand in the foiling of the attack and reassures all and sundry that
he’s well, unhurt and okay; and will continue to dedicate himself in
service to God, Nigeria, and humanity”.
