President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has charged the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to stop dreaming that he won the 2023 presidential election because he lost the poll.
Onanuga said Obi should stop living in denial and delusion
because he came a distant third.
He was reacting to Obi’s latest interview on Channels
Television where he claimed to have won the 2023 presidential election but was
rigged out.
In a statement he signed, Onanuga described the interview as
a “PR” disaster for the former Anambra State governor.
Reacting to the interview, Onanuga said: “Two issues caught
my attention while I watched him. First, when his interviewer, Seun Okinbaloye,
questioned him about his political nomadism, he tried to make the question a
non-issue, saying, with a smirk on his face, that he has not done anything
different from what President Bola Tinubu has done in his political odyssey.
“No, Mr Obi. Tinubu has not been jumping from one
ideologically different party to another. Since he joined party politics in
1991/92, Tinubu has stayed the progressive path all the way. He started with
the Social Democratic Party and won an election to the Senate on the party’s
platform, polling the highest vote ever by any candidate in the country.
“The second issue is that Seun gave you a golden opportunity
to redeem yourself in respect of the outcome of the 2023 election. You lost,
Peter. You didn’t win that election.
“You did well in the election, no doubt- a politician with
no structure in the states, except the noisy followers on X, Instagram and
Facebook. But I was utterly surprised that more than three years after the
Supreme Court threw away your petition, you are still in denial of the loss,
and you still nurse the delusion that you won the election, echoing the
sentiment of your gullible followers on the streets. Mr Obi, it is time you
accepted the stark reality of the loss. Stop dreaming of a victory that you never
had.”
