The Presidency has criticised Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) for the 2027 general elections, Peter Obi, describing his recent interview on Channels Television as a “PR disaster” while accusing him of making false claims and refusing to accept the outcome of the last presidential election.
In a lengthy post shared on X on Monday, Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, said he watched about 30 minutes of Obi’s interview before switching it off, claiming the former Anambra State governor’s media appearance failed to revive what he described as his “ebbing” 2027 presidential ambition.
“If the political nomad thought the interview would re-energise his ebbing 2027 presidential ambition, it turned out to be a PR disaster, judging from the spate of reactions to the many lies he referenced,” Onanuga wrote.
One of the major issues raised by the presidential spokesman was Obi’s comparison of his political journey with that of President Bola Tinubu.
