After losing out in the November 18 gubernatorial election in Anambra state, Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has joined his voice with that of former president Olusegun Obasanjo calling president Muhammadu to forget about contesting in the 2019 presidential election.
The 36 years old Actor in a YouTube video penultimate hours ago said “Please, sir, don’t bother, just leave it I don’t think Nigeria and Nigerians can endure four more years of what is going on right now. Believe me, it’s really terrible, the hardship is too much. I watched your inaugural speech in 2015 and you sounded like you really had the best interest of the people at heart, you sounded like you really wanted to change things. I don’t know what went wrong maybe this wasn’t the plan, maybe something happened along the line but what we are seeing right now is not what the people are expecting. Nigerians expected so much from you but the hardship is too much, the issue is too much.”
Citing the issue of poverty, insecurity, and fuel scarcity the Democratic People’s Congress (DPC) flag bearer in the 2017 Anambra state governorship who has since defected to the ruling All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) on the invitation of Governor Willie Obiano said 95 per cent of calls he gets on daily basis are from people begging him for money.
