•Peter Obi and Tinubu
National leader of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has launched a scathing attack on President Bola Tinubu, accusing him of being out of touch with the struggles of ordinary Nigerians.
Obi’s criticism comes as Nigeria grapples with economic challenges, including rising inflation, unemployment, and poverty.
Speaking in a recent interview with NewsCentralTV, Obi said that Tinubu should be blamed for Nigeria’s current economic woes.
“Cost of governance with the way it is today (under Tinubu) is criminal and unacceptable. So, you can’t ask people to fast while you’re feasting,” Obi asserted.
