When politicians are talking, close your mouth – Amaechi tackles Sowore [VIDEO]

The vice presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, Rotimi Amaechi, on Monday attacked the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, Omoyele Sowore, for questioning his achievements while in government.

Sowore had, during a panel session at the Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, 2026 Annual General Conference, made remarks suggesting that Amaechi failed while serving as Rivers State Governor and a minister.

Responding, Amaechi pointed to his achievements, asking Sowore to keep quiet when experienced politicians were talking.

“Where are those from Lagos? The Lagos-Ibadan railway is working or not? I don’t know about Tinubu’s time, but during our time, it was working.

“Is the Abuja-Kaduna rail working or not? Where are Rivers lawyers? Let them take Sowore around and show him what I did as governor.

“Moreover, Sowore, when politicians are talking, close your mouth,” Amaechi said in anger.
