First Republic Aviation Minister, Chief Mbazulike Amaechi, has stated that if for any reason the candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, loses in the fast-approaching presidential poll, then it will be safe to conclude that God created Nigeria to suffer.

Amaechi also feared that nothing happens to Obi ahead of the 2023 general elections, worrying that Nigeria’s situation would worsen if anything happened to the LP presidential flag bearer.
According to the former Aviation Minister: “I don’t think it was just an accident that Peter Obi emerged. I think it was God’s way. If anything happens to him, it would worsen the situation in Nigeria and the situation may degenerate to something non describable.”
“If they’re afraid of Obi who is just a beginner, why should they not be eternally afraid? Peter Obi is the only governor who left office and nobody asked him any questions,” he said.
Lending his voice to the already vociferous crowd of Obi’s supporters and how that their man for Aso Rock has always been a saint, Amaechi affirmed the presidential aspirant has never been found wanting so does not know the way to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the litany of law enforcements agencies in the country.
“He didn’t know the office of EFCC, ICPC or DSS because of his clean records. The man who succeeded him wanted to leave the country two hours he handed over, meaning he wanted to sneak away.”
He also added: “Many other governors who left office have been arrested and charged to court but they ran into Senate or APC as a party and today their cases are closed. That’s the kind of rotten country you have. Yet people are suffering, and may continue to suffer.
“I don’t think God created us to continue to suffer. The 2023 election is an opportunity he’s provided for us to right the wrongs. You will see how the whole world will embrace Nigeria if Peter Obi wins the election and all the criminals and looters will melt away to Dubai,” he concluded.
