Peter Obi has slammed President Tinubu for destroying Nigeria from where Buhari stopped.
NewsOnline Nigeria reports that Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 general election, has sarcastically commended President Bola Tinubu.
According to Obi, Tinubu is doing well in fulfilling the promises he made to Nigerians during his campaign of which one of them was following the footsteps of the immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari administration, whose government has been widely described as clueless and lacking direction.

Tinubu had during his campaign promised he would begin from where his predecessor stopped and life has not been easy for the citizens under the years of the All Progressives Congress, APC, especially in terms having food on their table.
On Tuesday, Obi was a guest on Arise TV, where he said that the president has not failed in his promises to his people.
“He [Tinubu] is doing well because what he promised people is exactly what he is doing; that he would start and continue from where the previous government stopped,” Obi said.
“Someone who met the dollar at 300 to 400, and now it is 1,500, he has done fantastic.
“What is happening can be turned around with a competent leader who has the capacity and compassion to serve. I would make sure to address Nigerians at least once every month.”
Tinubu removed fuel subsidies on his first day in office and later floated the naira, leading to economic shocks, including inflation, higher living costs, and currency devaluation.
Among other things, the electricity tariff was adjusted to attract investment and improve supply, but many Nigerians worry about paying more without a stable power supply.
