Peter Obi And Amaechi Unfit For North – APC Chieftain Declares In Explosive Tirade Video

APC chieftain Alwan Hassan has stated that the North will never support Peter Obi’s presidential bid due to his association with alcohol production.

Speaking during an interview on Channels Television on Tuesday, August 5, Hassan reacted to the anchor’s comment that President Tinubu has never lost an election, either as a senator or governor.

Hassan responded:

“And he will never lose an election — that’s my prediction, based on the facts on the ground. Who do you think can defeat Asiwaju? Peter Obi, who came on this same programme asking for the North’s support, yet proudly spoke about building a brewery in Anambra and being a major importer of alcohol? Does he expect the North to vote for someone like that? Will we elect a president who brings alcohol into the North?”

He also took a swipe at politicians who, according to him, rely on their wives for financial support:

“We cannot hand over this country to men who are being fed by their wives. Someone came on air claiming his wife is an entrepreneur. We need a man who is truly the head of his household — not one being taken care of by his spouse.”

Though he didn’t name names directly, the remark appeared to be directed at former Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi, who recently revealed on Channels TV that his wife is a successful industrialist.

His statement stirred controversy, especially after Amaechi’s successor, Nyesom Wike, accused Judith Amaechi of receiving N4 billion from the NDDC over a year to run a skills acquisition programme — a claim she has denied.
