Sometimes I Believe Tinubu is Not In Charge Of His Government – Peter Obi

The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Peter Obi, has said that there are times when he believes President Bola Tinubu is not fully in charge of his administration. He recently had his say during an interview with Arise TV, and Nigerians have been reacting.

Speaking about the state of the nation, insecurity, fuel prices and corruption, Obi stated that Tinubu should personally address Nigerians on issues affecting the country instead of letting his aides and associates speak on his behalf.

Questioning the President’s frequent trips abroad, the former governor added that BAT should spend more time visiting parts of Nigeria affected by insecurity.

His words, “Sometimes I believe Tinubu is not in charge.

All these things that his people are talking, he should be the one talking.

Nobody will talk for Peter Obi. I will talk to my people.

He should spend three days in troubled Nigerian states.

Security is the most important thing for Nigerians. It has made it impossible for manufacturers to move their goods. Insecurity has made it impossible for farmers to go to farm.

My first week, I will appoint capable security chiefs. Even if I am going to retain those that are there, they will know that a new Commander-in-Chief has arrived.

I will do whatever it takes to secure the country. I believe in state police. I will not pay ransom.

I will remove corruption from subsidy. When I remove it, petrol and every other thing will go down. We are buying fuel at high cost.

If there is any president the North should celebrate, it’s me. I will deal with poverty, health, skills. I will deal with the North and they will like it.”
