Speaking on the morality of Wike to decide Obi’s fate, he added, “when you talk about integrity, moral right, Wike shouldn’t be the one talking, noting that as a politician, he had returned to his vomit many times and therefore, is not in possible to comment on Obi.
Also Speaking on the chances of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2027 general election, he said, he do not think Tinubu will win come 2027, citing the hard economic reality in the country.
To push home his point, he cited what transpired in Enugu State during the Nigeria Bar Association (NBA), annual conference held in Enugu, where about 5000 members were given Tinubu’s posters but NBA rejected the posters on the conviction that Nigerians are suffering.
According to them, Nigerians are not better off since Tinubu came into office or better off than when Goodluck Jonathan was in office.
According to him, no less than 30 million people have been reduced to poverty and over 66% of the rural dwellers are living in abject poverty.
Chief Ameh, said further, “Government is not living with the reality; it is the people that are feeling the heat. There is hyperinflation and depression.”
On the issue of vote buying and how 2027 election is going to be, he alluded, “I think people should not have the notion that Nigerians can be bought over during the 2027 election. I said this because Nigerian youths have decided to take power.”
