49 days to the 2023 election, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential flag-bearer, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on Saturday lambasted the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar and his Labour Party counterpart Peter Obi, calling the former ‘Mr. Privatize’ and the latter ‘Mr. Stingy’.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that addressing the Ondo state rally at Democracy Park, Akure, the state capital, the APC candidate urged the people of the state to live up to that billing by voting APC all the way in the upcoming election.

The rally was attended among others by Governors Oluwarotimi Akeredolu (Ondo), Babajide Sanwo-olu (Lagos), Dapo Abiodun (Ogun), Abdullahi Ganduje (Kano), former Osun State governor, Gboyega Oyetola, and APC National Secretary Senator Iyiola Omisore who represented National Chairman Senator Abdullahi Adamu.

“On February 25, I know you will be a champion of progressive politics again. That date represents for the nation and for each and every one of us an appointment with destiny.

“We not only must make that appointment, we must emerge from the appointment fully dedicated to creating a more prosperous, safer, tolerant and dynamic society. But these things do not come by accident. These things are but some of the fruits that only progressive and democratic good governance can harvest. “And that progressive governance can only be brought to you by someone who has governed in a progressive manner before,” Tinubu said.

Taking a swipe at Atiku, Tinubu said the PDP candidate could not do it.

“He doesn’t want to do the brave and hard work required to build a better nation. Instead, he would rather sell your birthright to the highest bidder and run off with the proceeds.

“He cares little that his policies and actions will impoverish you and leave you with nothing.”

On the Labour Party candidate, Tinubu said Obi had a chance to show how progressive he could be when he was governor of Anambra State.

“All he could do was boast that he saved money. But I tell you it is a wicked parent that holds money in his hand yet allows his children to starve.

“Likewise, it is a heartless governor who holds back money when people went hungry, schools, road and clinics went into disrepair. Neither the city-dweller nor farmer prospered under him.

“In the end, he refused to save the people because he preferred to save the money. And he claims to be the party of labour.

“You will have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if you think he will do better for the nation than he did for Anambra State.

-Peter Obi saved money but Tinubu embezzled Lagos money and resources to fund his stupendious lifestyle. Tinubu turned politics into family business while Peter Obi family members are productively engaged individually.

-Peter was never involved in a heroine-drug running scandal, but that was the dirty history of Tinubu that he has to forfeit a staggering $460, 000 plea bargain in order to escape prosecution in the US.

-Tinubu was the pioneer of the senseless corruption encompassing retirement benefits for State governors that have been copied by others. Peter Obi have not been a recipient of same since leaving office.

-Peter Obi sanitised Anambra State of anti-social miscreants but Tinubu created an empire of touts, thugs, urchins, miscreants, agberoes and all manners of substance abusing brigands.

-Peter Obi educational policies saw to the emergence of Anambra State as the number-1 performance based on WAEC records during their stints as governors.

-Peter reel out statistics to buttress his proposed policy drive but Tinubu-a supposed first class account repulsed statistics because he wants to promote agberoism as a policy of government.

Johnthejohn:
Peter Obi is better than Tinubu in all Ramifications, forget about urchins rantings

Very useless drug sniffing vagabond..

MikeofAfrica:


While Obi was saving his State funds in a bank, Tinubu was looting his state funds till he became richer than Osun state.

Hence I prefer someone that will save my money for me than someone that will loot my money and have the audacity to boost that he is richer than me.

ibechris:
Tinubu and his supporters are not sensible.

There is no country that can survive without saving money.

I can bet u that Lagos has more people than Anambra state and statistics can help usnon that.

It is only a foolish man like Tinubu that can talk stupid things and his idiotic supporters will cheer him.

There is no politicians in this context that can be compared to Peter Obi none. When it comes to prudence and financial management none.

Vinnie2000:


PETER OBI always talks about Economy, Education, Infrastructure, etc..

While dis Clownish Tinubu is always about Obasanjo, Atiku, Peter Obi, etc..and will NOT tell us how he intends of Clear the Damages done by his USELESS party, APC.

Honestly, Between Tinubu and his Supporters, I Nor know who Yeye Pass.

lhordspy:
He didnt actually saved all. He diverted a large chunk of it into his daughter offshore account. Also Invest another billions in pandora business, which he was caught and will be punish with time.. Then he invested the remaining few funds lefr into beer parlour business. Which ended up as loss.

No wonder we have lot of youth from the state today; selling gala in Lagos traffic or white-powder in India.


Anyways, Ondo is truly Batified.

You will have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if you think he will do better for the nation than he did for Anambra State.

Felabrity:
He don leave Atiku dey go after Peter Obi, only thing he is good at

Attacking other presidential candidates

Issue based campaign no concern him
