Renowned businessman and oil magnate Arthur Eze has revealed that President Bola Tinubu has thrown his support behind Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah’s bid for a second term in office.
Eze, the Chief Executive Officer of Atlas Oranto Petroleum, made this disclosure during the celebration of the second anniversary of Mbah’s administration, held on Thursday.
According to Eze, Governor Mbah has significantly transformed Enugu State over the past two years, and notably, without incurring any debt from financial institutions.
To emphasize the governor’s achievements, Eze stated that President Tinubu has already given his blessing for Mbah’s re-election.
“God is a wonderful God. He brought Peter Mbah to change Igboland. Let me tell you, Tinubu has already endorsed him for second term. Tinubu endorsed him for second term because he has character. He is very honest, nobody will stop him,” Eze declared.
This endorsement comes shortly after the airing of a State House documentary celebrating President Tinubu’s second year in office, in which Eze also expressed strong admiration for the president.
In the documentary, Eze described Tinubu as “God’s gift to Nigeria,” praising his leadership qualities and inclusive approach.
“Tinubu has no enemies. He is a unifier. He speaks with humility and honesty,” Eze said.
He further emphasized the president’s fairness and religious tolerance, saying:
“He is not a man of division, whether Christian or Muslim, he respects all.”
Eze concluded by highlighting Tinubu’s contributions to the South-East region, stating:
“What Tinubu has done for the South-East, nobody else has. He gave us the Minister of Works, the Minister of Science and Technology, and the South-East Development Commission. This is an opportunity for the Igbo to unite with the rest of Nigeria.”
“Tinubu has no enemies. He is a unifier. He speaks with humility and honesty; that’s why we admire him,” he added.
