Arise Television Morning Show anchor, Rufai Oseni, has expressed sympathy for President Bola Tinubu over his performance at the All Progressives Congress, APC, campaign rally in Kaduna State.
Oseni described Tinubu’s speech at the rally as one of the
worst campaign speeches he had ever heard, arguing that the president’s aides
failed to prepare him adequately for his first campaign outing ahead of the
2027 general elections.
Speaking on Arise Television’s Morning Show on Monday, Oseni
said Tinubu should not have campaigned in Kaduna if he was going to deliver
such an embarrassing speech.
“I think that was the worst campaign speech I’ve ever heard
in my life by President Tinubu.
“I think it was best he should not have even campaigned in
Kaduna, because that was a terrible one for the eyes and for the ears,” he
said.
The broadcaster faulted members of the president’s campaign
council for allegedly failing to prepare a concise speech that would enable
Tinubu to explain and defend his administration’s policies after nearly four
years in office.
According to Oseni, the president’s aides should have
prepared a five-minute speech summarising the achievements of the
administration and explaining its policies to Nigerians.
He questioned why the campaign team allowed Tinubu to
deliver what he described as a disjointed and uncoordinated speech at a
critical moment in his re-election campaign.
“What is wrong with you guys? Is this how much you are so
concerned about just collecting money from him?” Oseni asked.
He also criticised Tinubu’s remarks on the removal of the
petrol subsidy and his attempt to blame the opposition for the poverty and
hunger confronting Nigerians.
Oseni said the president’s speech lacked structure,
coherence and a clear ideological direction, adding that it failed to provide
an effective defence of his administration’s policies.
“You just allow a man like that to ad lib at his inaugural
campaign speech after four years in office, where he needs to make a great
defence, what did you guys do to him?” he said.
The broadcaster maintained that Tinubu’s campaign team had
failed the president by allowing him to deliver such a speech without adequate
preparation.
“I feel for President Tinubu this morning,” Oseni added.
The APC has commenced its campaign activities ahead of the
2027 general elections, with Tinubu seeking another term in office.
