Tinubu Critiques Obi and Atiku's Leadership Records
During a visit to Akwa Ibom State, President Bola Tinubu criticized former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi and former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar regarding their political affiliations and leadership credentials ahead of the 2027 general elections. Tinubu, while inaugurating projects by Governor Umo Eno, implied that Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, failed to address erosion in Anambra State, contrasting it with his own claims of managing the Atlantic Ocean surge in Lagos.
He also questioned Atiku's political loyalty after his defection from the Peoples Democratic Party to the African Democratic Congress. Tinubu referenced Obi's tenure from 2006 to 2014 and Atiku's vice-presidency from 1999 to 2007, noting their respective performances in the 2023 presidential election where Tinubu emerged victorious.
Tinubu reiterated his commitment to addressing erosion issues in Anambra, recalling his campaign promises made during the 2023 elections.
