Ahead of the 2027 presidential election, former Chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, Sam Amadi, has declared support for Peter Obi as his preferred candidate.
Amadi made the disclosure in a post on X, stating that Obi, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, is the only contender he can confidently support.
According to him, other potential candidates lack credibility, making strong allegations about their integrity.
“That is why the only presidential candidate i can excitedly support in Nigeria today (amongst the serious ones) is @PeterObi the rest are mostly thieves, actually armed robbers in suits and agbada,” he wrote.
Amadi’s comment came in reaction to a post linking Lagos socialite, Aisha Achimugu, to alleged financial misconduct involving a politician.
The post claimed that Achimugu, whose 13 million dollars was recently forfeited by order of a Federal High Court in Abuja, had connections with a top political figure.
