For his
unyielding love for President Muhammadu Buhari, Senator James Udoedehe, a
chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, and former senator of
the Federal Republic of Nigeria, has declared that serving the President as a
domestic staff (house boy, cleaner or messenger) would not be demeaning to his
personality.
He
disclosed this to newsmen in reaction to the recently released names of board
members of various agencies.
The
former Akwa Ibom State senator, a former minister, who was recently appointed
as a board member of the Nigeria Information Technology Development Agency,
maintained that he has been receiving calls from his political associates
describing the appointment as humiliating.
He said
he didn’t mind serving the president in any capacity, promising to make rally
support for President Buhari and help him win majority of votes in Akwa Ibom in
the 2019 elections, no matter the challenges.

Hear
him, “It will be disrespectful to the president for me to reject the offer, I
am a loyal party member. If the president finds me worthy to be a messenger or
a cleaner in the government, as a Christian I should humble myself and accept
it. I don’t want to give my enemies weapon to tell lies against me. I don’t
want my enemies to go and tell the president that I am arrogant.”
Going
spiritual, he quoted the Bible as teaching about long suffering, humility,
patience, and gratefulness to God.
