In response to this appointment, Obi took to his account on the X platform, previously known as Twitter, to express his congratulations to Olaoye.

“Based on my familiarity with Prince Ghandi’s career, particularly as a Pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God in Washington, I can confidently say that he is ideally suited for this role, possessing the qualities needed for royalty.

“I commend him for taking on this significant responsibility of ushering a new, modern, and enlightened era in the leadership of traditional institutions in our country. This is a vital step in building a new and fair society that we can all take pride in.

“Individuals like the new Royal leader, who are committed to the advancement of humanity and societal development, are encouraged to engage fully in the task of nation-building by contributing to society’s well-being at various leadership levels. Our traditional institutions have a significant role to play in our pursuit of a New Nigeria. I wish him the best in his new challenges and encourage him to continue working for the progress of his immediate Ogbomosho community and our broader Nigerian society as a whole. We must all collaborate to build the New Nigeria of our aspirations.

“I extend my congratulations to the wonderful people of Ogbomosho and wish the new Soun and his community a productive and fulfilling reign.

“The New Nigeria is a realm of boundless possibilities. – PO”

‘Kwankwaso Is More Experienced Than Peter Obi’ – Buhari’s Ex-Aide Declares.

Ahmad made the assertion in a post on his X handle, maintaining that Kwankwaso’s decision to accept the position of running mate should be seen as an act of political modesty rather than an indication that he is less qualified than Obi.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

According to the former presidential aide, the relationship between the two politicians should be viewed as one of equals rather than that of a superior and a subordinate.

“To be entirely candid, the political dynamic between Rabiu Kwankwaso and Peter Obi ought to be characterised as one of collegiality between peers, rather than a hierarchy of principal and subordinate,” he wrote.

He added, “The choice to assume a deputy role beneath Obi ought to be interpreted as a testament to political modesty.”

Making a case for Kwankwaso’s political experience, Ahmad recalled that the former Kano State governor served as Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives before Obi became a prominent figure in national politics.

He also noted that Kwankwaso governed Kano State, which he described as Nigeria’s most populous and politically influential state, for two terms and served as a federal minister.

“If we are assessing political experience, Sen. Kwankwaso probably has a longer and more impressive political background than Peter Obi,” Ahmad stated.

In contrast, the former presidential aide argued that Obi’s major public office experience was limited to his tenure as governor of Anambra State.

“Unlike other candidates, Peter Obi was just a former governor of Anambra State,” he wrote.
