The presidency has said that opposition political parties are standing on a sinking ground while President Bola Tinubu is standing solidly on the rock of competence.
Special Adviser to President Tinubu on Media and Public
Communication, Sunday Dare, stated this on Sunday in an interview on Arise
Television.
The presidential spokesman, who was reacting to the Ibadan
declaration by the opposition to field one presidential candidate, described
the summit as a collection of recycled politicians.
He said they are people who have been ministers, governors,
and political actors for years, stressing that a closer look at their recent
performances, whether in executive or legislative roles, there is little
evidence of fresh thinking.
According to him, the individuals have nothing new to offer
Nigerians.
He said, “They are free to field five, seven presidential
candidates. But I said they’re standing on the sinking ground.
“That is the beauty of democracy. You have the opposition,
you have individuals, political leaders decide on what they want to do.
“But that does not diminish the fact that there is a
government in place that is functional, that has measured outcomes in what it
has been doing. It does not take that away.”
