The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, said South-Easterners overcrowding Lagos because the Labour Party’s presidential flag bearer, Peter Obi, refused to develop Anambra State, when he was the governor.
Tinubu said Obi is a salesman selling fake merchandise and that Nigerians would have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if they thought that the Labour Party candidate would do a better job for the country than he did in Anambra State.
According to Tinubu, Igbos were migrating to Lagos because Peter Obi, failed as governor to develop Anambra State, adding that there was nothing to be proud of after Obi left Anambra State.
The former Lagos State governor stated all these on Saturday at a presidential rally in Ondo State, claiming that Obi left Anambra “crying”, while he moved to Lagos.
Tinubu said; “You will have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if you think he will do a better job for this nation than he did for Anambra State.
“What is there to be proud of after Obi left? Obi has nothing to be proud of. Instead Obi moved, left Anambra crying. He moved to Lagos,” Tinubu said at a presidential rally in Ondo on Saturday.
“I’m indeed very sorry. Buyers beware. A salesman selling fake merchandise. Beware of people like Obi.
“The truth of the difference between my leadership and that of Mr Obi lies in one observation. Although Lagos is crowded because of the space left when they migrate to Lagos from Anambra.
“It is a wicked parent like Obi given the opportunity to feed the children but hoards money on his hands when the children starve and go to bed hungry.
“That is Obi’s wickedness. It is true that the heartless governor will hoard money when there are hungry school children; roads and clinics are in disrepair.”
