How My Family Couldn’t Feed – Former Minister

News Update

A former Minister of Transportation, Chibuike Amaechi, has said that he wore a shirt and a trouser for nearly four years due to poverty.

The former Governor of Rivers State said that growing up in the streets of Port Harcourt was difficult as his family could not even feed.

Amaechi, a former two-term Speaker of the Rivers State House of Assembly, two-term governor and two-term Minister of Transportation, said this in an interview with Daily Sun where he spoke majorly of personal issues rather than politics.

He said, “I grew up in Port Harcourt. Poverty was everywhere, we couldn’t feed, you can hardly eat three times a day, and you can hardly change your cloths.

“In fact, when I tell people that I wore a shirt and a trouser for nearly four years, most people don’t believe it, but my classmates will tell you.

“We are going for a reunion in Umuahia and I usually yab my classmates when we meet at reunions. I would say you see, one of you could have been Mrs Amaechi now, maybe if you had agreed by the time we were in school.

“But because we were very poor, we didn’t have money to feed, we didn’t have cloths to wear, you people didn’t give us attention.

“You people didn’t think we have bright future. But one thing you don’t know about men is that they fight to be relevant. So, for me, I am as simple as life can give.”
