A group, White Witches and Wizards Association of Nigeria, has warned against attempts to scuttle the inauguration of President-elect, Bola Tinubu, on May 29, 2023.
Speaking to reporters after its meeting in Calabar, the Cross River State capital, its spokesman, Dr. Okhue Oboi, claimed ahead of his return from vacation in Europe, the group has provided the President-elect protection to ensure no negative thing happens to him.
Oboi said after thorough review of the developments in the country, the meeting came to the conclusion that scuttling the inauguration of the president-elect would spell doom for the unity of the country and put spanners in the wheels of the nation’s democratic moving train. He expressed the fears that not swearing-in Tinubu could unwittingly precipitate an unrest, the magnitude never witnessed in the country.
“We have reviewed the volatile developments in the country, we urge aggrieved parties to give peace a chance because resorting to self-help will do more harm than good to the polity. There is no reason for Tinubu to be afraid because all campaigns of calumny mounted against him are mere distractions. We are currently cleaning and detoxifying the Abuja environment where Tinubu will operate. What Tinubu needs now is prayers of good health and long life from all Nigerians so he could deliver on his Renewed Hope promise for better life for all,” Oboi said.
On the forthcoming governorship election in Kogi State, the group said: “We have met with the Igala, Ebira and Yoruba population in the state. We met Igala people in Idah, Ebira people in Obehira and Yoruba people in Kabba, and listened to them. We advise Dino Melaye to see us if he is desirous of realizing his governorship dream. If he listens to our advice, he will laugh because the trees and waters of the Confluence State will vote for him regardless of whether Governor Wike supports him or not.”
The group advised politicians to desist from the use of political thugs which ultimately leads to bloodletting, arson and insecurity across the country.
