‘Only a wicked governor keeps money when people are hungry’ — Tinubu replies Obi
The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu has criticised his counterpart in the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi, saying only a wicked governor saves money when his people are wallowing in hunger.
The Informant247 observes that Obi did boast that he had the savings of N75bn during his reign as the governor of Anambra State.
Tinubu, made this revelation at his presidential mega rally in Akure, the capital of Ondo State.
He said only a wicked parent would withhold money in his hand and watch his children die of starvation.
He said only a wicked governor would keep money when people are hungry, schools, road and clinics are not in good conditions.
“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 laboring under a terrible delusion if you think he will do better for the nation than he did for Anambra State. Buyer beware of salesmen selling fake merchandise,” he said.
Tinubu added that: “Although Lagos is crowded and Anambra has ample space, more people left Obi’s Anambra seeking a better life in Tinubu’s Lagos than left Lagos believing Obi had established a blueprint for growth in Anambra.
“My people, you cannot entrust your future or that of our nation to Mr. Sell Everything Atiku or Mr. Stingy Obi. But you can trust Mr. Progressive Good Governance Tinubu,” he said.
