Governor Wike has criticized the influence of certain political figures, singling out Amaechi’s track record. 

He pointed out that despite Amaechi’s position as governor in 2015, he was unable to produce a winning successor or rally significant support for Muhammadu Buhari, managing less than 25% of the vote.
