Amobi Ogah, a member of the House of Representatives on the platform of the Labour Party, has called on politicians in Nigeria to lend their support to President Bola Tinubu’s administration.
In a chat with journalists on Monday, Ogah emphasized the importance of respecting whoever God had bestowed with the mandate to lead the nation.
Representing the Isuikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency of Abia, Ogah stated that it was now time for governance, stressing that the election period had already passed.
“Once you are in this politics, don’t lose hope. Don’t think
that if you don’t win today, you will not win again,” Ogah said.
“Once somebody has
won an election, to be a good sportsman, you must give the person support.
“For me, like I said earlier last week that trended all over
the world, when I told the people that the election had come and gone. Now it is
about governance. And whoever God has given that mandate to represent the
people, you must respect that institution
“That is why I always say, whoever that is on that seat
(president), give the person that support until either the court or
God says otherwise.
“We must put Nigeria
first. Nigeria is more important than anybody. It is more important than me. I can tell you it is only God that gives power”, he maintained.
