The former governor of Rivers state stressed that the discussion should remain focused on the presidency rather than the vice-presidential position.

“Idris, the interview is about presidency. I didn’t buy form for vice president. If you want to interview a vice president, I can send them in for you”.

Speaking on the issue of consensus candidacy within the party, Amaechi maintained that any such decision must come through collective agreement among stakeholders.

“If the party wants a consensus, let’s have a meeting. If we agree, we do it. If we don’t, we go primary”.
