Addressing journalists in Abuja on Tuesday, Mr Amaechi explained that his mandate was freely given by the governors, who are representatives of the people.
He insisted that he has the mandate of the majority of his colleagues and would not give up the mandate for any reason.
Amaechi’s reaction is coming after the Jonah Jang led faction explained the circumstances around the electionthat the Rivers state governor is claiming.
Vice Chairman of the Jonah led faction, Dr Olusegun Mimiko, claimed that Amaechi imposed the controversial election on all the governors.
He dismissed comments by some governors that they did not vote in the election that produced him as the chairman of the forum, adding that there was never a consensus candidate for the election because none of the candidates agreed to step down for the other.
He however pledged his loyalty to President Goodluck Jonathan and all the governors beyond any political party.
He also spoke on the emergence of posters announcing his ambition to run for Vice President, saying they are the hand work of mischief makers.
He asked the federal authorities to explain who pasted the posters in Abuja
