Onanuga called Obi’s ongoing criticism of the Tinubu administration irresponsible and unfounded, stating that the president’s accomplishments should not be overshadowed by such claims. He urged Obi and others to focus on their own party-building efforts rather than engaging in “blackmail” against the president.
The comments from Onanuga reflect the ongoing political dynamics between President Tinubu and his critics ahead of the 2027 elections. As Nigeria looks ahead to the next political cycle, the focus is likely to shift to how opposition groups, including those represented by Peter Obi, will organize and present their candidacies against an incumbent president with a strong record in governance.
This statement by Onanuga underscores the strategic challenges faced by Obi and his allies, who must now prioritize reorganizing and consolidating their support ahead of a competitive electoral process. The ongoing narrative around political maneuvering and party infrastructure is set to continue as Nigeria prepares for another pivotal election cycle.
