Edo North Senator, Adams Oshiomhole, has downplayed the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Peter Obi, saying he cannot be the president of Nigeria.
Speaking during an interview on TVC on Monday, Oshiomhole
described Peter Obi as a trader, who has short-term calculations.
“Peter Obi is a trader. Traders have short-term
calculations, they are not into long-term projections. They are not wired to
think about what the situation will be in the long run. Their turnover is
within 3 months, maximum of 6 months.
“The Peter Obi that was Governor of Anambra State is not the
same today, because he was the one who said, as a matter of respect to the
memory of Odumegwu Ojukwu, he would never abandon APGA.
“But before daybreak, once his tenure ended, Obi became a
political wanderer, and he immediately found an alliance with perhaps the kind
of people Ojukwu would never have related with. He did this when he became
running mate to Atiku Abubakar.
“You look at his lifestyle to be able to project what he
would do if he were to become president which he would not be, God willing.
“It is a manufacturer, an investor, an entrepreneur that
understands how you can start a project, sweating for two to three years to
build a factory, and then import machinery to install before you start
producing.
“Nigeria was virtually grounded. Peter Obi is not aware
because he’s busy trading. I have said to people that Peter Obi’s business is
to export job and import unemployment to the country. That is what he lives
for. He’s a trader. He owns a shopping mall,” Oshiomhole said.
