Chief Peter Obi the former Governor of Anambra State yesterday in Onitsha lambasted the northern Monarch. It was shameful as Peter Obi insults all Northern Leaders because of his personal interest., Chief Peter Obi said on Onitsha and I quote, ' I am here to confirm that Chief Victor Umeh paid the sum of 50 Million Naira to be turbaned the Jagaban of Shinkafi' He said that he has lost his respect for the Sultan of Sokoto for having a hand in turbaning Chief Umeh the Jagaban of Shinkafi.
One now wonders why Chief Peter Obi will insult the whole Northern Monarchs because of his Senatorial ambition. It will be recalled that Peter Obi, the former Governor of Anambra State has is one of the arrow heads that have denied the Central Senatorial District the chance to have a Senator representing them. He is instrumental in securing a kangaroo judgement which stopped the conduct of the scheduled South Senatorial rerun election.
Last month, Peter Obi called the Emir of Kano a drunk which is a taboo. He later apologised openly and was forced to apologise in a national daily. During the Presidential elections, Peter Obi qualified President Buhari as senile , old and unfit to lead. He went further to call Buhari a tyrant who only hears and understands military command.
Peter Obi in many fora has called all Governors in Nigeria Criminals and I wonder If it is not the same Peter Obi that went to Court with the other Governors during their tenure and prayed the court to give them access to our National savings. Nigerians are suffering today because of the action of Peter Obi, Rotimi Amaechi and others who secured the judgement that forced the former President to share the Sovereign wealth fund. Today, Peter Obi is preaching about prudence and fund management.
My advise to Peter Obi is to desist from insulting the Leaders of this country because of his personal ambition.
