Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, has criticized Peter Obi, the former Labour Party presidential candidate, labeling him a liar over his recent statement about serving only one term if elected.
Onanuga argued that Obi does not compare to historical figures such as Mandela, Abraham Lincoln, or John F. Kennedy.
Obi, who once governed Anambra State, had declared that his promise to serve a single four-year term was non-negotiable.
Responding, Onanuga posted on X: “You’re neither a Mandela nor a Lincoln or a Kennedy. You sound as if you have never held an elected office before. You sought re-election as Anambra Governor in 2010, and narrowly won courtesy of a divided opposition. Why didn’t you walk away after only one term in office?
“Meanwhile, after serving two terms, did Anambra look like a state that has been transformed? If you couldn’t transform a small Anambra after 8 years, is there a guarantee that you’ll do anything significant under 4 years as President of a complex and complicated Nigeria?
“You talk about keeping your promises or your vow being your bond, but you and I know that’s not true. You have broken previous promises and usually lie with reckless abandon, sometimes needlessly.
“For example, you said you won’t leave APGA but you left (the reason for your exit is immaterial because if we’re to make allowance for excuses, you’ll definitely have an excuse to break your one-term vow).
“You talk about trust, but how do you expect people to trust someone who can’t keep a simple promise not to leave a political party?”
