Yunusa Tanko Defends Peter Obi's Anambra Handover Records

Yunusa Tanko, the National Coordinator of the Obidient Movement, stated that Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, voluntarily presented his administration's records from his tenure as Governor of Anambra State. This statement was made during an interview on ARISE Television on a Friday, addressing allegations that Obi left behind debts, unpaid salaries, and other liabilities for his successor, Willie Obiano.

Tanko emphasized that Obi is prepared to answer questions regarding the state's alleged financial issues and has made his handover records public. He asserted, “Nobody asked His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi, to present facts about his handing over.

He did willingly and openly to the people.” Tanko challenged critics to verify the figures in Obi's handover note by checking bank records instead of making unfounded allegations. He referred to a video confirming the financial details, urging anyone disputing the claims to consult the bank for verification.
