Founder of Household of God Church, Rev Chris Okotie, has picked holes in the campaign promises of the major Presidential candidates in the 2023 general election.
Speaking as a guest on radio programme in Lagos, Okotie said the current constitution would not make it possible for any presidential candidate to fulfil his campaign promises because it contains several inherent contradictions.
Okotie wrote on his Facebook page: “All the major presidential flag-bearers are talking about modality -how they would do what – none is addressing conditionality, that is, the constitution, true federalism, resource control, as the primary solution to the Nigerian quandary.
“Nigeria’s governmental incapacity is not modalities (about requisite knowledge and procedure), but conditionalities (inherent conditional obstructions).”
Okotie said to attempt to base any actualization of political promises on the present dysfunctional constitution is a journey in futility. He concluded that the only way out is to adopt his brand of restructuring based on Aboriginal Democracy, which would produce an acceptable constitution that would meet the yearnings of the people.
