Fresh criticism has emerged against the Federal Government. Peter Obi says President Bola Tinubu should resign, accusing the APC administration of failing Nigerians.
ABUJA, NIGERIA — Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has called on President Bola Tinubu to resign from office, alleging that the All Progressives Congress, APC, led administration is corrupt, incompetent and insensitive to the challenges facing Nigerians. Obi made the remarks in a public statement while commenting on the country’s current political and economic situation.
According to the statement, Obi argued that the Federal Government has not delivered the level of leadership needed to address rising economic pressures, insecurity and other national concerns. He maintained that Nigerians deserve accountable governance and policies that improve their daily lives.
Obi said the current administration has failed to meet public expectations and insisted that President Tinubu should step down. He also urged the government to place greater focus on addressing the country’s economic and security challenges. As of the time of filing this report, the Presidency had not publicly responded to the latest remarks.
Peter Obi, who represented the Labour Party in the 2023 presidential election, has remained one of the leading opposition voices in Nigeria. He has repeatedly criticised the policies and performance of the APC-led Federal Government, while calling for reforms in governance, economic management and public accountability.
The development means political exchanges between the opposition and the ruling party are likely to continue as national discussions focus on governance, economic reforms and preparations for future electoral activities. Observers expect both the Presidency and opposition leaders to sustain public engagement on issues affecting Nigerians in the months ahead.
