However, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, countered Obi’s claims, saying “The big question is why this economic review at this time? The motive is clear: he wants to work up his mob plotting to destabilize the country from next week.”
Onanuga further stated, “Labour Party failed presidential candidate, Peter Obi has come up with his misleading, half-truth statistics again.” He questioned Obi’s intentions, saying “he aims to work up his mob plotting to destabilize the country from next week.”
