An African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential aspirant, Rotimi Amaechi, on Thursday said President Bola Tinubu’s “emi lokan” mentality is responsible for the current sufferings of Nigerians.

Amaechi cautioned Nigerians against voting for Tinubu again in 2027

The former Minister of Transportation spoke with reporters after submitting his presidential nomination forms in Abuja.

He insisted that Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress, APC, should be ashamed of themselves, stressing that the party should not participate in the 2027 elections due to the current hardship in the country.

Amaechi said, “Nigerians should vote for merit, not vote for those who say, ‘I’m from this place’ or ‘it is our turn.’

“It is the ‘Emilokan’ mentality that brought us here. It is our turn that brought us here. Now Nigerians are suffering.”

The former Rivers State governor lamented that Nigeria’s economy had been adversely hit by the bad policies of Tinubu’s government.

“There is no market for Christians, nor is there a market for Muslims, nor a market for northerners or southerners. The market has only one purpose, the naira. Nigerians are suffering.

“The current president has put us in this suffering. I don’t know why he wants to run again. I don’t even know why the APC wants to participate.

“They should be ashamed and allow other Nigerians to participate and change the country,” Amaechi added.

"The current president has put us in this suffering."

Nigerians put themselves in this suffering. Its not surprising because suffering and smiling is their talent.

"I don’t know why he wants to run again"

Because he knows that an average Nigerian can sell his or her vote for a bag of rice and few cartoons of indomie.

Obasanjo called TINUBU a drunken Sailor

Same boring lyrics. We go soon stone you

Where you not once part of them, E no favour you now, you wan claim better person pot calling kettle black. Ogbeni start to distribute laptops and phones.

Yeah, stuffs like this

And he's not part of them . ?

My pain be say na like only 2 people for the whole of Nigeria go finally vote for Amaechi

All of them contesting are basically saying Emilokan, they are just too timid to admit it.

—Atiku it’s my turn is exactly why he won’t pass the baton to a Southerner knowing fully well we just finished 8 years of a Northerner.

—Obi don even turn to Mr promiser that his desperation made him say he will only do one term and pick up gun to fight at Sambisa.

Amaechi usually say he is hungry yet he could afford over 60million in form fees. He would have loved to say Emilokan too, but he does not have the range or power

The Drunken sailor aka Pirate Jack Sparrow will not listen to you Amaechi. He was sent from hell fire to torture Nigeria and Nigerians and he's not done yet

Coming from someone who sponsored Buhari's election more than a decade ago. Someone who did not invest in massive infrastructural projects in his state while as minister or even neighbouring states.

A rogue democrary is what nigeria is witnessnig.

That is why even you are hungry.

Using Tinubu to campaign is getting stale fr… what do you have for Nigerians. Talk!!!

Mr.Lifeless and Emilokan are two of a kind.

Bola Ahmed tinubu is a chronic armed robber from irabiji

Oga were you not part of APC before? Just keep quiet there you are part of Nigeria’s problem

We all know that except the Agbadorians

We don hear you, dey go now

Even those defending him on empty stomach know.

That's what APC slaves were told to say, that they are all the same. Lump them all in one bag, but Obi the bright star refused to go under. People can see he's different and they are not letting go.

But you were one of those who produced, directed and even acted in part 1
So what are you saying ?

Gosh you even join in producing part 2 of the horror APC movie currently trending live since 2023 just that you are not acting in this one. So you are no different

Obi is a boy. Na Seyibalabala dey trend now.

Aside catching cruise with Obi because of uncouth Obidient mouth, nobody thinks he will win, not even his Obidient supporters. That’s why he’s crying about one term

Go and sit down.

Amaechi never hid is disdain for Tinubu's incompetence from the beginning.

He never supported Tinubu any day!

Every right thinking Nigerian knows this but you're as bad as tinubu.

Hypocrite, but you were amoung the people that got him there; you and atiku abubakar. You will be worst than Emilokan..

Jakarta:
Go learn how to read and understand, or tell chatgpt to Elim5 my comment for you.

go and learn how to make rational comments in public space.

The man is saying the truth about this useless govt. And you are linking him up to Tinubu.

I like as Makinde wan contest. That Emilokan's votes from south west must be depleted...

Is that the Amaechi manifestos, nonsense.

Nobi you again, Oga you're just spraying your bullets anyhow without hitting any targets..learner

Tinubu is appointing his boys in critical sectors of the economy
Rather than appointment on merits he’s appointing his corrupt friends for personal gains
