Oh dear! Are we doing this again? Like, Really???
Televangelist, Chris Okotie of the Household of God Church is running for the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria again and this time, the pastor wants all other candidate to give up their position so he alone can run and become the president in 2019.......What????, Excuse me while I role my eyes y'all😀.
The preacher said this during an interview with Daily Trust News in Lagos, Nigeria.
Okotie who is running under the Fresh Party, plans to suspend the constitutions when he becomes Mr President, and create an interim government where there will be no need for legislature.
"I already have the Fresh Party’s presidential ticket, and that means we shall be participating in the presidential election slated for February 2019. But what I am saying is that all other parties should not field candidates against me in the 2019 presidential election so that it would be easy for me to set up the Interim National Government. If they don’t field candidates, it means I have won and what I’d do immediately is set up an ING instead of the normal or ordinary government that is put in place, where we have the legislature, judiciary and all of that that is not workable. An interim government will not need a legislature and it is at this time that we can redesign the political landscape"
Asked how it would work, since the constitution does not support an interim government, the MOG responded ....
"The Constitution was created by men. It can be suspended and we can put an ad hoc mechanism in place to legalize the machinery of an interim government. It can be done. It is not impossible".......(Iyen naa nice...lol).
