The AreaFada, also known as Charlyboy, has predicted that the country’s current situation will prevent the holding of general elections in 2023.
Charlyboy said that the 2023 election is currently in peril due to the abundance of problems afflicting the entire country, including hunger, poverty, the strengthening of the currency, attacks on INEC offices, and a host of other problems.
He spoke exclusively to Daily Post while on vacation in the United Kingdom.
Peter Obi, a devoted supporter of the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, expressed his pessimism that the political titans who have been holding the country hostage for years would not be ready to cede control to Nigerians in the upcoming elections.
He said: “There may be no election next year going by what I see. I don’t think that these people who have their stronghold on the nation’s political space are willing to relinquish power to the people.
“I repeat, there may not be an election next year. I have been saying this since last year. The way things are going, I doubt it. Nigeria is on a free fall. I have been saying it for years”.
Speaking on the dollar rise and the state of the economy, CB said: “I was telling my family that a dollar will get to N1500. Look at what is happening now; it’s almost getting to N1000. There you are. The redesigning of the Naira is not a solution. How can it be a solution when you are producing nothing and you are not exporting? So you just keep printing money to pay salaries and you think that’s a solution?”
“Do you know what will happen at the end of the day? Because anybody who has money now, will not have tomorrow. If you have 5 million Naira today, some people will think it’s a lot of money, but do you know that every day, that 5 million Naira that you have in the bank keeps depreciating?”
