Sam Amadi Says Felix Morka Won’t Plot Against Peter Obi for Criticizing the Government
Sam Amadi, the Director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thoughts, has dismissed the idea that Felix Morka, the National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), is plotting harm against Peter Obi, the former Labour Party presidential candidate.
In a post on X, Obi questioned whether he had “really crossed the line” after receiving threats directed at himself, his family, and his associates.
Obi’s comments came after Morka made a controversial statement during an interview on Arise TV, where he said, “Peter Obi has crossed the line so many times, and he has what’s coming to him.
Whatever he gets, he should manage it.”
Amadi, however, defended Morka, sharing his personal experience with the APC spokesperson.
On X, Amadi described Morka as a reasonable and intelligent individual, explaining that they were graduate course mates.
He expressed surprise at Morka’s recent statement, suggesting that something might have influenced his words, possibly the “APC curse,” but emphasized that Morka would not plot evil against Obi for simply offering good-natured criticism.
“That’s just not Felix,” Amadi stated.
Human rights activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has faced backlash after suggesting that opposition figures, including Peter Obi, could contribute to President Tinubu’s chances of re-election if opposition votes remain divided.
He stated “If Tinubu gets re-elected in 2027, blame Peter Obi and the other contractor-general. With all the insecurity and kidnapping in the country, they are the ones aggressively working for his second term by ensuring opposition votes are divided like they did in 2023.”
His comments sparked criticism from many Nigerians, who argued that Peter Obi is not the only opposition figure and should not be solely blamed for political divisions.
Nigeria’s Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, has expressed confidence that the northern region will support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the next election.
According to Matawalle, the administration has delivered major infrastructure projects and development initiatives across the region.
“For us in the North, our votes for the APC and President Tinubu will show clearly that we appreciate what he’s doing for the region.”
He added “If you see the dualisation of the Abuja–Kaduna, Zaria–Sokoto, and Ilela–Badagry expressways, you will agree with me that the North is experiencing key projects it never had in the past, even when a northerner was president.”
It was reported and revealed by the National Coordinator of the Obi Movement that an attack occurred at the movement against Peter Obi in Edo State.
He stated that the armed people had guns and shot at Peter Obi and his members of the movement.
“At the formal declaration of Olumide Akpata into the African Democratic Congress, armed individuals followed us from the ADC Secretariat to the residence of Chief John Odigie-Oyegun.
They shot at the gate and destroyed several vehicles in what appears to be a survived assassination attempt on our lives. Democracy is in danger.”
