Sam Amadi, former chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission, NERC, has cautioned political actors against underestimating President Bola Tinubu, saying he is prepared to engage opponents “dirty” if they come at him with “dirty dress”.
In a post shared on Wednesday via X, Amadi said those urging young politicians to confront the president should be mindful of the consequences.
He noted that while Tinubu “is not clean”, he is relentless and will “fight dirty once you are dirty and fighting him”.
Amadi added that Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi, is the only one capable of surviving the “coming hurricane” because “his clothes are not dirty”.
His remarks come amid reports that former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, has spent a second night in the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, custody as he faces investigations into alleged terrorism financing, money laundering, and abuse of office.
He wrote: “Those who are promising the youths that they can fight Tinubu with dirty dress should take note. Tinubu is not clean; but he will fight you dirty once you are dirty and fighting him.
“Only @PeterObi will survive the coming hurricane because his clothes are not dirty.”
