Amobi Ogah, member-elect of the house of representatives,
says he did not know that President Bola Tinubu is “so intelligent”.
Ogah, who will represent Isuikwuato/Umunneochi federal
constituency of Abia in the 10th assembly, spoke on Thursday after
members-elect of the national assembly met with Tinubu at the presidential
villa.
Elected on the platform of the Labour Party (LP), Ogah said
Tinubu’s charisma shows that he is ready for the challenging task of leading
the nation.
“Today is my best day. Today, I’m so happy that I’m an
elected member seeing my president talking. In fact, I’ve never known that this
man is so intelligent,” he said.
“I never knew that
this man is so prepared to serve this country. I saw the love, character, and
charisma — the belief that Nigeria can be a better nation.”
Ogah said he is convinced that he should support the All
Progressives Congress (APC) nominated candidates for the leadership of the
house of representatives.
“So I’m so glad that the meeting we had today is going to
take us a little bit to a more stabilised house. Now, even without talking to
us again, we have agreed that we are going towards the government’s decision,”
he said.
The APC had nominated Tajudeen Abbas from Kaduna and
Benjamin Kalu from Abia for the positions of speaker and deputy speaker of the
10th assembly.
“Not minding (that) I’m of Labour Party, as of now, the
party is not the issue. We’re talking about building the nation. We are talking
about the unity of the nation,” he said.
Peter Obi, who was the standard-bearer of the LP in the 2023
presidential election, lost to Tinubu of the APC.
Obi and the LP are currently challenging Tinubu’s victory at
the presidential election tribunal.

Amobi Ogah, you are entitled to your opinion. Nobody is contesting Tinubu's intelligence. He was a senator, and former governor of lagos. So keep your eulogy of his intellect to your brain. What we are saying is that the process that brought him to power lacks credibility and full of fraud. By the way well written speech does not make one intelligent. Focus on why your people voted you any way.
