We are not Obidients in Enugu State, Anglican Archbishop of Nigeria

…says Enugu State better under PDP umbrella

Prince Ejeh Josh

Ahead of the 2023 general elections, a foremost Archbishop of the Anglican Church of Nigeria, Enugu Ecclesiastical Province, Most Rev’d Prof. E.O Chukwuma (OON) has lashed out at the candidates and supporters of the Labour Party in Nigeria saying Enugu State people would never be part of their controversial “Obidients” mantra.

Archbishop Chukwuma who said this on Thursday at Eziokwe Village, Ndiagu Akpugo, Nkanu West local government area of Enugu State during the burial ceremony of a former Military Administrator of Osun and Abia states, Colonel Anthony Obi (rtd) stressed that political parties should refine their paths with people-oriented programmes that could lift the country out of poverty.

While calling on Nigerians to repent and retrace their steps by emulating the impeccable lifestyle of the late military administrator, Archbishop Chukwuma added that Nigerians were suffering due to the hardship the All Progressives Congress had brought on the country.

“Late Colonel Anthony Uzoma Obi lived a life that gave meaning to the people. His life should be emulated by other public officeholders. He served as governor in two states—Osun and Abia states, and he was not found wanting. He was not indicted of any crime or corruption. His records are clean. He was not given to embezzlement. He was a contented governor. The Bible says when the righteous are on the throne, the people will rejoice, but when the wicked are on the throne, the people will suffer. Everyone will give account of their stewardship after this earth,” the fierce Anglican Archbishop said.

Speaking on the best candidates that can liberate Nigeria in 2023, the Archbishop insisted that Labour Party and its candidates have no solutions to the myriad of problems bedeviling the country, and called for the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, to take over the Enugu State as the only viable alternative the people are left with.

The Archbishop who further accused those he called “Obidients” of bandwagon without patriotic interrogations of the credibility of candidates without pedigrees appealed to electorates in Enugu State to vote only the candidates of the PDP in the forthcoming elections.

…says Enugu State better under PDP umbrella

Meanwhile, the Archbishop has reiterated his resolve to work closely with the people to avoid repeating the mistake of 2015 that delivered power into the hands of APC, saying Enugu State has always been better under the umbrella of the PDP.

“Let me say this in clear terms: we are not Obidient in Enugu State, and we’ll never be. The people of the state are under umbrella and better off with the PDP. Our people should vote for the PDP in Enugu State. The parties in Nigeria must go and refine themselves and prepare for a better Nigeria.

“Today in Nigeria, the evil people are on the throne. We are suffering in Nigeria because they’ve refused to remember the poor people around them,” Archbishop Chukwuma added.

    I prefer Peter Obi four thousand times to Asiwaju. But I prefer Asiwaju four million times to Atiku the champion of North to North succession that will cripple Nigeria.

    This man called bishop chukwuka has been the most stupid man that ever existed, he was among the people who were singing praises to chimaroke nnamani even as he was killing people in Enugu state. This man is a fool and disgrace to priesthood.
