Kenneth Okonkwo Declares Tinubu Unfit to Govern Nigeria

Kenneth Okonkwo, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, publicly criticized President Bola Tinubu, stating he is unfit to govern Nigeria. Speaking to journalists in Abuja on Thursday, Okonkwo accused Tinubu of causing severe hardship for Nigerians since he took office on May 29, 2023.

He claimed that the administration has failed to address the basic needs of the populace, citing rising living costs, increasing insecurity, and economic difficulties. Okonkwo asserted that Tinubu lacks the physical strength and leadership capacity necessary to lead the nation and called for his resignation.

He urged Nigerians to vote the All Progressives Congress out of power in the upcoming 2027 general elections, emphasizing the need for a capable leader to address the country's challenges. Additionally, Femi Otubanjo, a Research Professor at the Nigerian Institute of International Affairs, commented on Tinubu's reduced campaign activities, suggesting that age-related limitations may affect his ability to conduct a rigorous campaign.
