President Tinubu Issues Warning to Peter Obi Against Talking Down At His Government

President Bola Tinubu has cautioned Peter Obi to be mindful of his statements and refrain from undermining his administration

In a statement issued by Tinubu’s spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, the presidency condemned Obi’s “exaggerated” criticism of the government.

Obi, a former presidential candidate and ex-governor, had accused Tinubu’s administration of political brigandage and corruption, claiming that democracy in Nigeria had collapsed.

Responding, Onanuga dismissed the claims and urged Obi to be more responsible with his remarks.

I will urge him to watch what he says and restrain himself from playing to the gallery,” Onanuga said. “His hyperbolic remarks, suited for headlines, have been made without deep reflection and lack a solid logical foundation.”

He described Obi as a “discontented and disgruntled” politician, arguing that if democracy had truly collapsed, Obi would not have the freedom to express such views.

“How can a democracy that has strengthened over the past 26 years be said to have collapsed?” Onanuga questioned. “Only a discontented Peter, who benefits from the very free speech democracy provides, could perceive such a democratic downfall through his lens.”

He further pointed out that Obi’s ability to voice his concerns at a public event, such as Emeka Ihedioha’s colloquium, contradicts his claim of a failed democracy.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo also made critical remarks about the Tinubu administration at the event.

Obi is definitely a disgruntled politician. A destined failure.
He's so deluded that he believes because he lost the 2023 election.  Nigeria must be destroyed.  He's talking a lot of negative things about Nigeria.  Thinking foreign country would come and dethrone Tinubu and pit him in power.
What a wishful thinking! I'll advise he change his medication as the first one is definitely not working.
If you lose a football match, do you kill the referee or the chairman of the football association???
Lack of competitive spirit. The fact is, without coup or a foreign country taking the power from the APC , he Obi stand no chance of winning the presidential election in Nigeria.
If he like let him start to pray in the mosque or wash the clothes for the Hausas.  He'll never win the presidential election in Nigeria.
