- His speech a The Platform has sparked a social media debate
- Some are commending him for give a good speech while others are saying he lied
The former governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi, has incurred the wrath of some Nigerians for saying he has only one wristwatch.
Speaking on Monday, May 1, at The Platform, the flagship programme of Covenant Christian Centre in Lagos, the former governor made some statements which did not go down well with some people.
He said he has only one wristwatch which he has worn for 17 years. He added that he has only two pairs of black shoes.
Obi said: “I have said it to Nigerians, Peter Obi wears only black shoes, and I have two pairs of it, and I travel with it. The purpose of shoe is to protect the leg from being hurt. Nothing else. I bought this from Marks and Spencer, $49.99, finish.
“They said ‘we didn’t even see watch’, and I have said it to everyone, this is the only watch I have, I have worn it for 17 years. The purpose of watch is to keep time. Why would I keep a watch at home? Whose time is it keeping?”
The former governor had some words for the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government and also talked about the recent search of his apartment in Osbourne, Ikoyi by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
He wondered why anyone would keep such huge cash in a building, as it could have been used to empower some graduates.
Some Nigerians have taken to social media to react to his speech. While some are applauding him for pointing out the truth, others are criticizing him for saying he has only one wristwatch.

You are the beloved of God, your head bowed, your height knelt. You speak for the Berom whose household was slaughtered and his huts razed by fire. You speak for the Christian minority, who are sandwiched between crushing hate and the devil's ire. You are the heartbeat of fainting hearts. You are Samson the crusher of the wicked. You are Gideon, a man of valour. From the small town of Akpugo, to the oil rich South South, you are the voice of the helpless, their toast...
