Kenneth Okonkwo, a former spokesman for Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi, has criticised Bola Tinubu, describing him as the worst president since Nigeria’s independence.
Okonkwo’s outburst comes following Mr Tinubu claim that his administration osbon the right track in tackling the problems of Nigeria. Tinubu made this statement in a media chat on Monday.
“We are focussed, we’ll maintain focus. Let’s believe in ourselves and our country. Tomorrow will bring a glorious dawn. “It is just 18 months I’ve taken the reign. 2025 is a very promising year,” Tinubu said.
However in an interview aired on Channels TV on Tuesday, Mr Okonkwo criticized Tinubu for scoring himself high.
Mr Okonkwo cited recurrent grip collapse and worsening insecurity as manifestations of Mr Tinubu’s failure, accusing the president of costly extravagance.
Okonkwo said,“The worst statement the president made during his first presidential media chat is scoring himself ‘excellent’. President Tinubu has done the worst job by any president since independence,
“In the last twelve months, we have had national grid collapse more than 12 times. It has never happened in the history of the country, meaning the power isn’t accessible, available and available.
“Between October, for a president priding himself that security has improved, more than 2,496 people have been murdered and many have been kidnapped. This is the president with the most expensive cars in the history of the country,” he added.
