Sam Amadi Backs Peter Obi, Criticizes Other Candidates

Sam Amadi, the former chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), publicly announced his support for Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, in the upcoming 2023 elections. In a post shared on social media, Amadi expressed his enthusiasm for Obi, stating that he is the only candidate worthy of support, while disparaging other candidates by labeling them as "thieves" and "actual armed robbers." This statement was made in response to allegations against Aisha Achimugu, a politician who recently forfeited 13 million naira to the Federal High Court in Abuja due to financial fraud.

Amadi's remarks highlight the contentious political landscape in Nigeria as the country approaches the 2023 presidential elections, with significant emphasis on integrity and accountability among candidates.
