APC Has Put Us In Gwo Gwo Gwo Situation – Peter Obi (Video)

The 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has lamented the rapid decline of Nigeria’s GDP since 2015, during the regime of the All Progressives Party (APC), describing it as a Gwo Gwo Gwo Situation.

Obi said this during an interview on News Central TV.

Tracing from 2005, he said, “Nigeria in 2005 had a GDP of over nearly 500 billion with a per capita of over 2500. And today, our per capita is just about a little bit over a thousand.

“That is the crisis you face. And we have tripled our debts. That means the money we borrowed, were all either swallowed by snakes, pythons, tortoises, monkeys. “

Obi added, “We are now in this new song of Gwo Gwo Gwo, where people put the money, the elephant even followed and ate the money… political parties…. So it’s a crisis situation.”

The story behind the popular Gwo Gwo Gwo song, produced and sung by Mike Ejeagha,  goes that in the animal kingdom, the elephant offended the king. The king declared that anyone who could capture the elephant would marry his daughter.

Despite the enticing reward, everyone was scared because of the elephant’s enormous size. However, the tortoise confidently told the king that he would bring the elephant despite his small stature.

While others were fearful, the tortoise boasted that he would lead the elephant to the palace with a rope. The elephant, unaware of the bounty on his head, was approached by the clever tortoise.

The tortoise told him that the king had recognised his good deeds and wanted to reward him with a chieftaincy title, making him the festival’s chairman.

Excited by the news, the elephant agreed to go to the palace with the tortoise.

As they made their way to the palace, the tortoise, lagging behind the faster elephant, suggested, “Since you’re bigger and quicker, let’s enter the palace together. Tie a rope around your neck so I can follow right behind you.” The elephant agreed, and they continued on their journey.

However, as they neared the palace, the tortoise realised their arrangement might need more convincing. He pleaded with the elephant, “If I follow behind, I might slow you down. Please, let me ride on your back.” The innocent elephant agreed.

When they entered the palace, the entire village was astonished to see the tortoise riding the elephant with a rope around the elephant’s neck. The king was equally amazed and hailed the Tortoise, exclaiming, “Gwo Gwo Ngwo! Chairman!”
