Reacting to the development, Amaechi in a statement by his media office yesterday described the move by the PDP as “frivolous, ridiculous and laughable,” promising to meet the party in court.
Amaechi noted that he has not been served with the court processes and as such was not aware of the matter.
He, however, queried his inclusion in the court matter when he does not have the powers as a Minister of Transportation to deploy soldiers.
“Who has the powers to deploy soldiers according to our constitution and laws? Does Amaechi, the Minister of Transportation, have powers to deploy soldiers anywhere in the country?
“If Amaechi as Minister of Transportation does not deploy soldiers, why is he being dragged into the matter? And is the court saying that soldiers can’t be deployed for the safety and protection of lives and property when there is a clear need to do so?
“However, like I said earlier, we will meet them in court,” Ameachi said.
