Bowoto Jephthah, the stand-up comedian better known as Akpororo, says Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, is wasting his time challenging Bola Tinubu’s victory in court.
During his performance at a recent comedy show, the video of which has gone viral on social media, the comedian dismissed the claims that President Tinubu is too frail to run the affairs of the nation.
He said that the President is healthy and will serve for two terms.
“I always say this and people say I’m crazy. But in the end, what I said will happen. Tinubu will be president for eight years,” he said, albeit in pidgin English.
“Before he became president, his head, hands and legs were shaking. But since he became the president, have you seen anything shake?
“People mocked him on social media for his grammar but since he became the president, that man reads without looking at books. He is very intelligent. Nothing will happen to Tinubu, he will be president for eight years.”
Akpororo also said Obi, who is challenging the outcome of the February 25 presidential election, will make no headway.
He said Obi will be in court until Tinubu’s eight-year tenure as president elapses.
“Peter Obi is still in court, right? He’s still challenging Tinubu’s victory. He will do so for eight years,” the comedian said.
