Datti revealed that he would have been “a lot happier” if his critics had stopped at him alone. According to him, the insults have been hurled at him and his family members because he has done a lot to combat false narratives about him and the party’s standard bearer, Peter Obi.
He said;
“When I joined the ticket, I impeached certain lies against him and I saw they were heading towards that. Particularly my good friend on the APC side, on the same level.
“When people think they have money, they have power, and the sitting authority is theirs, there’s no limit. Someone has to tap them on the shoulder. I did it and I pointed a finger. You do it again – do one, I’ll do three. You know I’m capable of doing it.

“They’ve stopped. However, me and my family have been paying a huge price for my attempts to rescue Nigeria. They sent all sorts of people after me.
“But the thing that I was able to sort [out] with the [opposing] presidential and vice presidential candidate, I ended up suffering on a much lesser level.
“Thirty-five years ago, at least, our dad of blessed memory passed away. No one ever insulted him until I joined elections for presidency. This is not fair. It doesn’t happen anywhere in the world.
“You don’t insult people’s parents or their families. It’s a huge price for anyone to pay.”

“Since God called our father into the ministry, our family has never known lack” – Lady celebrates dad for sponsoring 4 children’s education despite not having any paid job

Lady father sponsor education ministry no paid work

A young lady has revealed that her family has never known lack since her dad, who doesn’t do any paid work, was called into the ministry.
The lady shared this on the micro-blogging platform, Twitter.

According to her, things changed for the better for her family after her dad was called to serve in the Lord’s vineyard.
He was able to sponsor his four kids’ education as a minister even though he had no job that gave him renumeration.
She wrote:
” My Dad doesn’t earn a salary. He doesn’t do any paying work. God called Him into a ministry and told him, “I will be your employer” and we’ve not known lack till today. He sponsors our education (4 of us). We live in a very comfortable house, we always have all we need too.
I think about all the amazing amazing things that works for my Dad and I just conclude that this is God. I don’t know but I also know there’s a special grace over this man’s life, a convenat. There’s almost no one he doesn’t know. I mean all the big men.”
