Opinion: In APC, Integrity, is defined as forgery, bigotry, incompetence – Dr Umeh Richyard

A renowned clergyman and unrelenting crusader of good governance in Nigeria, Reverend Richyard Awa Umeh, has reacted to the usual calling of Alhaji Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC, as a man of integrity by the likes of Senator Orji Uzor Kalu and other supporters, saying that no sensible person will believe that Tinubu, with all the skeletons around and within him is a man of integrity?

“This can only be so if integrity has a different meaning in APC. They fooled themselves on 2015 when they decieved gullible Nigerians with a ” Mr integrity”. Today, almost 8 years after that deception, we know that to these people, APC and their co travellers, integrity means nepotism, bigotry, incompetence, lacking in focus and outright stupidity.

“2022, they’re playing the integrity card again? This time with a man whose name is a fraud, his ancestry a fraud, his primary education a fraud, his secondary education a fraud, his claim to have attended Chicago state University, a fraud, his claim to have worked with Delliote in US has beeh debunked by the company.

“Ndi Igbo are known as a people who eschew sentimental voting/politics. We have always voted for credibility and competence. Tinubu is a stranger to credibility, competence, integrity, capacity and decency.

“His kind of politics is alien to Igbo land. He has refused to allow billboards of other parties in his Lagos but would want to hoist his face on billboards in other parts of Nigeria. Is this not strange? Does this not speak volumes about the man Tinubu aka “it is my turn?”.

“Please sell his candidacy to the well known ” sophisticated liars” He has decieved them over the years and they seem to enjoy it. Down here, we vote with our heads.”, he said.
