Chris Okotie Begs Tinubu, Atiku, Others To Step Down
SHARE

Nigerian clergyman and politician, Reverend Chris Okotie has asked the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, to step down from the 2023 presidential race.

The popular cleric also extended the plea to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and other candidates in the race to let go of their ambitions for him.

The Founder of Household of God Church noted his intention to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari at the end of his duty in 2023.

The cleric described himself as the right person to solve Nigeria’s challenges while calling on Buhari to hand over power to him.

Chris Okotie, who made the plea during his 63rd-anniversary celebration at his church in Oregun, Ikeja, stated that Nigeria is blessed with all human and natural resources.

He said;
“I want to appeal to all presidential candidates to withdraw from the race and allow me to come in as the interim president. I want to implore Asiwaju to support my government for the betterment of the country and I also want to tell Obi that the system that introduced him cannot take him anywhere, because he cannot operate in the system we have now. All the presidential candidates should support me to succeed President Buhari as the interim president.

“We must also rise above tribe and religion because there is an imbalance in the country and we are not practising federalism instead, what we are practising is a presidential system of government. Since 1999, things have been declining because the presidential system of government we are practising has failed us.

“We must get rid of the National and State Assemblies because maintaining each member cost the country billions of naira. Some of the standing committees at both assemblies are not useful to the country, they are only representing themselves, not the populace.

“For the best of the country, both assemblies should be scrapped and the money for maintaining them should be used for something else. What we have in Nigeria today is the government of the party, by the party and for the party.

“Ministers and the Commissioners should also be expunged because Nigeria’s democracy has been hijacked by the elite for their interest and they are deceiving the downtrodden who don’t know anything. And the most important of all is our constitution. It should be changed to a people-oriented constitution, not the military one we have now. After the change, we can then restructure the country for the better.”

He again revealed his plans for the country if he wins the forthcoming presidential election

He again, said;
“If I am made the interim president, our government will be a transparent one and we will redirect the steps of the youth who are into internet fraudsters and turn them into better persons in the society and empower them.

“While a young person with inclination to technology advancement will ensure financial accountability of government and each state will have control of their national resources. First, we emulated the British and now we are copying the American style of democracy that didn’t take us anywhere.

“The presidential system of government has failed us woefully. We should enable professional associations constitutionally to acquire legislative power as a replacement for the removal of the legislature from our political system.

“And we should also embrace the concept of aboriginal democracy, that is a government from the people, for the people and with the people. This is distinct from the current experience of political parties which is the government of the party, the party and for the party.

“My government will be that of National Reconciliation and Reconstruction. The interim government shall address aberrations and anomalies in the polity. I want to implore all Nigerians to join hands in the conversations that would enable a transition to an interim government at the end of President Buhari’s administration.”
