Founder of Household of God Church, Reverend Chris Okotie, says he will soon meet President Muhammadu Buhari to present to him the proposal for an interim government.

Okotie made this known in a statement on Friday by his media adviser, Ladi Ayodeji.

The preacher said his proposal is open to debate from the general public and prominent citizens.

The statement read, “Okotie recalled that he was asked in several media interviews to give details of the interim government proposition and how it could be actualised.

“The Reverend said from the inception of his announcement of the interim government proposition, he gave details of the workings in form of bullet points outlined in his widely circulated press release.

“Moreover, Okotie has promised to send his proposal to President Muhammadu Buhari and the National Assembly once Nigerians have been fully sensitized.

“Okotie said he has already made this fact clear in several media interviews and would make a greater emphasis on the modalities of the interim government in subsequent public statements.”

Okotie began his call for interim government in June while celebrating his 63rd birthday at his Oregun church in Lagos, claiming he is the solution to Nigeria’s problems.

He called on presidential candidates for the 2023 election to step down and allow him become interim president.

“I want to appeal to all presidential candidates to withdraw from the race and allow me to come in as the interim president,” Okotie said.

“I want to implore Asiwaju to support my government for the betterment of the country and I also want to tell (Peter) Obi that the system that introduced him cannot take him anywhere, because he cannot operate in the system we have now. All the presidential candidates should support me to succeed President Buhari as the interim president.

“We must also rise above tribe and religion because there is an imbalance in the country and we are not practising federalism instead, what we are practising is a presidential system of government. Since 1999, things have been declining because the presidential system of government we are practising has failed us.”

The former presidential candidate added that Nigeria should scrap the National and State Assemblies because of the high cost of maintenance.
