President Bola Tinubu
A former spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Tony Okeke, has criticised the leadership of President Bola Tinubu and that of his predecessor Muhammadu Buhari.
Tinubu, of the All Progressives Congress (APC), took over from Buhari, his party member, in May 2023.
But Okeke claims both men have taken the country backward. The former PDP spokesman said this on Friday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
“In law, we say you cannot build something on nothing. The last administration [of Buhari] took this country like 50 years back. The present administration, I think, is trying to take us like 100 years back,” the PDP chieftain said on the show.
“The election of 2023 would have been the easiest election for the PDP to win because there were eight years of monumental disaster by the Buhari administration. People were fed up because the APC had nothing to offer,” Okeke said, blaming his party for its loss in that exercise.
