Presidency Slams Peter Obi Over Deceptive Sermons to Nigerians

The Presidency has once again taken a swipe at Peter Obi, presidential candidate of Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).

Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Information and Strategy Posted via his verified X handle on Thursday, urging Obi to stop deceiving Nigerians with sermons.

This comes amid the Anambra State debt scandal, where Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s administration claimed that it was still repaying debt borrowed by Obi’s administration during his tenure as governor from 2006 to 2014.

According to Onanuga, “The evidence is clear. If a small, homogenous state like Anambra could not be transformed despite $4.05 billion in spending and massive borrowing, how can the same manager promise to fix a complex federation of 36 states and the FCT?

“Mr Obi’s eight years were an unmitigated failure, now masked by revisionism. He should desist from deceiving Nigerians with sanctimonious sermons.

“The desperation is even clearer in his reported four-year single-term pact with his running mate, in direct contradiction of the two-term, eight-year provision of the 1999 Constitution.”
