Obi hellbent on inciting Nigerians against Tinubu. He is a doomsayer – APC tackles Peter Obi

The All Progressives Congress (APC) says Peter Obis New Year message shows he is a doomsayer” and one who is determined to turn Nigerians against President Tinubu. In his New Year message to Nigerians, Obi who was the Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, criticised President Bola Tinubu, while expressing grave concerns over institutional corruption, mismanagement, poverty, hardship, and an escalating debt profile. Obi, a one-time governor of Anambra state, stated that corruption has been deeply entrenched in government and nepotism has become the norm on Tinubus watch. However, in a counter-statement on Thursday, the spokesperson of the ruling party, Felix Morka, said Obis assessment was at variance with all indicators that showed that the nations economy is rebounding across all sectors. He accused Obi and members of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of making relentless attempts to incite public outrage against the Tinubu administration. The APC accused Obi of portraying himself as a leading doomsayer, omniscient and philosophers stone while failing to deliver meaningful achievements during his eight-year tenure as governor in Anambra state. In reality, 18 months later, the economy, under President Bola Ahmed Tinubus administration has shown a steady record of progress.Despite these and other initial beneficial outcomes of ongoing reforms, the administration is doubling its effort to ensure their fullest benefits for the transformation of our country. It is a thing of irony that Obi, who now arrogates to himself to be omniscient and philosophers stone, when it comes to our nations challenges, left no record of significant achievement, let alone transformation of any kind, in his eight-year tenure as Governor of Anambra State.Like his co-travellers in the PDP, Obis obsessive pessimism and endless but futile effort to incite public outrage against the administration is borne out of the realization that Tinubu is unwittingly cementing their political irrelevance through his visionary and full-throttle reform.Under the banner of the Renewed Hope Agenda, President Tinubu is dutifully turning our nations fortunes around. We urge Nigerians to remain confident of better days ahead. The ruling party added that Tinubus goal is to reduce inflation from 34 percent to 15 percent in 2025. With the vigour in the administrations war on corruption, evidenced by ongoing investigations and trial of well-heeled Nigerians, Obis pontification on the urgent need to tame corruption is a clear case of carrying coal to Newcastle, the party added.  The post Obi hellbent on inciting Nigerians against Tinubu.
