The All Progressives Congress has criticised former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, over his criticism of the economic reforms introduced by President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

The party insisted that Nigeria needs policy continuity rather than a fresh economic direction ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The APC National Vice Chairman (South-East), Dr Ijeomah Arodiogbu, made the remarks while reacting to Obi’s interview on Channels Television, where the former Anambra State governor said President Bola Tinubu should step aside, stating that the country was headed in the wrong direction under Tinubu’s leadership.

Obi had described the Tinubu administration’s agenda as one of “failure and renewed hopelessness,” and that Nigeria required a different leadership approach to address its economic and governance challenges.
