Human rights lawyer, Dele Farotimi, on Thursday said Nigerians should not expect a messiah that would save the country in 2027.
Farotimi said Nigerians expecting a messiah as President in 2027 should have their brains examined.
He was reacting to an X user
@herdeys1 who wondered if the former Anambra State governor is a messiah.
The user had posed: “Is Peter Obi the messiah we are expecting?”
Responding, Farotimi wrote: “I expect no messiah to save Nigeria and the victims of Nigeria, and anyone expecting a messiah should have their brains examined.
“Your messiah resides in your mirror, nobody’s coming to save us, it is up to us to save ourselves.”
Obi, who came third during the 2023 presidential election, recently declared that he would run again in 2027.
There are speculations that he is in talks with the Peoples Democratic Party over a possible return, as well as the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
