Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga has refered to the presidential candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC ) Peter Obi as a “copy-and-paste politician” who, according to him, has failed to demonstrate independent thinking in public service and leadership.
Onanuga in a post on his X handle, further describes Obi as lacking originality in his political and economic ideas, adding, that Obi, a former governor of Anambra State cannot be compared with President Tinubu.
Onanuga’s post was in reaction to a thread by Reno Omokri on Obi’s past references to Indonesia’s economy as a model for Nigeria.
Onanuga said Obi has nothing to show for the eight years he was in office as a governor.
He wrote, “Peter Obi has never shown original, authentic thinking. He is a copy-and-paste politician. That explains why he has nothing to showcase as Anambra governor for eight years.
“Willie Obiano, his successor, said Obi failed spectacularly in providing security in the state. In contrast with Governor Tinubu in Lagos, Tinubu left LAWMA, LASTMA, LAMATA, RRS, a rail and road masterplan, which is still being executed to this day.
“Nigeria deserves a leader who can see beyond the ken of the ordinary people, a leader who is a proven deep thinker and doer. Peter Obi is no match for President Bola Tinubu. They are not on the same level”, he stated.
