Obi has, however, consistently maintained that the outcome did not reflect what he believed was the actual result of the election.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Explaining why he was still happy with Tinubu\u2019s emergence, Obi said he believed the development was part of a divine plan for Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGod designed it that Buhari will be president and that after him Tinubu would come,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The former Anambra State governor further suggested that the developments under the current administration were exposing those responsible for problems within the country\u2019s system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cGod wanted to show that he\u2019s God.
