Peter Obi Slams Tinubu's Government for Early Revenue Target Brag

Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party for the 2023 election, criticized the Tinubu government for boasting about meeting its yearly revenue target early. Obi described the achievement as "shameful," emphasizing that hitting revenue goals means little if it doesn't positively impact people's lives.

The former Anambra State governor highlighted the importance of addressing unpaid entitlements and creating jobs to truly build the nation. President Bola Tinubu's administration had earlier announced meeting its revenue target, with plans to stabilize the economy and reduce borrowing.

Obi's response reflects concerns about the government's priorities and the need for tangible improvements in citizens' welfare.
