Amaechi said he got the hint shortly after the President dissolved first term cabinet.

Speaking at his swearing-in reception the minister said, “The President told me the same week cabinet was dissolved that I will return you to cabinet.

“I kept it a secret but I could have announced to you. So all those who were running helter-skelter, we knew that God would not allow them to have their way”.
