Obi Criticized for Lack of Governance Plan
Nigerian President Bola Tinubu's campaign lashed out against the ruling NDC candidate, Peter Obi, accusing him of having no grasp on governance and national unity. In a recent statement, Fredrick Nwabufo, senior special assistant to Tinubu, labeled Obi’s latest pledges as 'empty rhetoric'. According to reporting by Daily Post Nigeria.

Nwabufo emphasized that to truly strengthen national cohesion requires more than just rhetoric; it demands inclusive policies that benefit all citizens equally.
