The prophet Chukwuemeka Ohanaemere, popularly called Odumeje, has lit a controversy storm in social networks with a vertiginous criticism of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, whom he flatly described as “a businessman instead of a president.”
In a viral video that has attracted generalized attention and diverse reactions, the often controversial cleric, which goes through the nickname of “Indaboski”, argued that the true measure of a leader lies in his commitment to the national development and well -being of its citizens, a standard that believes that it is not affected by the current administration.
Odumeje contrasted President Tinubu with several world figures that acclaimed as constructors of exemplary nations, including former president of the United States, Donald Trump, the leader of Burkina Faso, Ibrahim Traoré, and the president of China, Xi Jinping.

According to him, these figures represent a true leadership dedicated to raising their respective countries.
“I don’t know who calls the president of Tinubu. Tinubu is just a businessman. If you want to talk about a president, call Trump, Ibrahim Traoré, Xi Jinping and many others, all are true leaders.
“Leaders are people who develop their country so that their children and citizens can benefit, but those we have in Nigeria are busy acquiring wealth for their own children,” he said.
Lasting the terrible situation of the country, Odumeje accused the political elite of focusing solely on accumulating wealth for their personal families while neglecting the growth and prosperity of the nation.
He concluded his acute condemnation of redefining the recognized status worldwide in Nigeria. Despite the popular label of being the “giant of Africa”, the prophet said that the country has become what Rodeos called a “F@Ilure giant, not a giant from Africa.”
The burning comments of the influential cleric are expected to continue promoting the debate on the priorities of current Nigerian leadership and the general state of the nation.
