Yahaya Ndu, the founder of the African Renaissance Party, ARP, and Director, Institute for African Renaissance Studies and realisation, has berated Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, over his recent trip to Egypt.
Ndu said that the former Anambra state governor could have taken a trip to Afghanistan to study how the United States of America failed after sinking trillions of dollars.
Obi had few days ago made a 3-day visit to Egypt to understudy the Egyptian Power, Education and other sectors.
Reacting, Ndu, who is also a presidential candidate of one of the eighteen political parties for the 2023 election, said: “Trending news has it that the presidential candidate of the Labour Party took off to Egypt to study the country’s power sector,” the former ARP presidential candidate told the press in Abuja on Saturday.
“This country is full of ridiculous politicians.
“He should go to Afghanistan to study how the United States failed there, after sinking trillions of dollars and left in shame without achieving anything
“Nigeria has hundreds if not thousands of experts in energy and power including electricity presently within our borders and abroad.
“All we need is to engage them and give them opportunities to clear their part. No need to go to Egypt.
“Which reminds me, we have been hearing about the so-called concessioning of the Ajeokuta steel mill.

“Permit me to use this opportunity to appeal to President Muhammadu Buhari to please reconsider and put
this move on hold in the interest of the nation.
“Ajaokuta steel is too vital an interest to be concessioned to strangers. When true patriots come into power come 2023, In Sha Allah it would be handed over to a team of Nigerian and African Engineers and the Nigerians society of engineers to run.”
