On Wednesday, the Presidency referred to Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, as the Nigerian counterpart of former US President Donald Trump.

Trump and Obi, according to Temitope Ajayi, President Bola Tinubu’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, have several things in common.

Ajayi observed that both men disparage their own countries with derogatory terms.

In response to Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris’ US presidential debate, he made the comment on X.

The Democratic candidate Harris prevailed in the debate, according to the White House official, because she recognised Trump’s shortcomings.

According to Ajayi: “Peter Obi is the Nigerian version of Donald Trump. Like Obi, Trump uses the most negative epithets imaginable to describe a country he wants to lead again, just to make a point and rile up his base.

“Kamala Harris prosecuted Trump very well in their first face-to-face debate last night. Kamala convincingly won the debate and left no one in doubt about her capacity.

“Vice President Harris knew Trump’s weaknesses and set traps for him. Trump fell for her bait. Both candidates have been fact-checked on their claims in the debate.

“While Harris was reported to have made just one incorrect claim, Trump made 33 false claims in the same 90-minute debate.”
