OK Movement slams Tinubu aide over Peter Obi criticism
OK Movement coordinator Adefolaseye Adebayo criticized President Tinubu's media aide Bayo Onanuga on Sunday over his attack on NDC presidential candidate Peter Obi. Onanuga had suggested Saturday night that Obi lacks courage for primary elections following his defection from ADC to NDC.
Adebayo accused Onanuga of relentlessly attacking Obi instead of projecting Nigeria positively to international communities. 'Your job description appears to be simply: Attack Peter Obi,' Adebayo wrote on X, adding that people are remembered for what they consistently represent.
The exchange highlights political tensions as the 2027 presidential election approaches, with the OK Movement promoting the anticipated Obi/Kwankwaso ticket. This follows Obi's recent defection from the African Democratic Congress to Nigeria Democratic Congress. As the political landscape for 2027 takes shape, how will this pattern of targeting opposition figures affect public perception of government credibility and democratic processes?
