The Minister of Works, Sen. David Umahi, has called on the flagbearer of the Labor Party in the 2023 elections, Mr. Peter Obi not to appeal the judgement of the Presidential Election Petition Court, saying the emergence of Tinubu as president is divine.
He urged all South-Easterners to come together and support president Tinubu, saying Obi is in the mould of the biblical John the Baptist.
Sen. Umahi further said he had divine revelation during the campaigns that Tinubu will be the president of Nigeria.
He also expressed satisfaction that the governor of Ebonyi state, Francis Ogbonna Nwifuru also believed in that vision.
“If you look at my script throughout the campaign, I have been saying that God told me that president Tinubu is going to be the next president of Nigeria.
“I am happy that your governor believed in God’s direction; all of us believed that president Tinubu is going to be our president.
“And like I said in Imo state, God has a purpose for everybody, Peter Obi has served the purpose of John the Baptist for the divine president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu .That is all God wants him to do this time around.
So, I advice him not to go to any Court of Appeal, I am not a lawyer, but my son is a lawyer; he has interpreted the judgement and has left no hope for any appeal. These judges are spirits, they went into everything and dissected everything”.
