APC Response To Peter Obi Press Conference Compelling Tinubu To Reintroduce Himself

The All Progressive Congress (APC) has responded to Peter Obi’s request compelling President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to reintroducce himself to Nigerians.

VerseNews earlier reported that Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) during the 2023 general electionson Wednesday addressed a press conference in Abuja, the capital of Nigeria.

During the press conference, Obi called on Tinubu to come out and clarify the controversy surrounding his identity and academic records at the Chicago State University.

Responding to the call, VerseNews reports that the APC’s national publicity secretary, Felix Morka in a statement he signed said there is no need for Tinubu to reintroduce himself.

The statement reads; “At his press conference earlier today, Mr Obi blathered on about President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s identity and academic record, like a broken voice note of Atiku Abubakar, cutting a pitiful profile as though forced to read a prepared statement by his unimaginative handlers, and mendacious associates in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

“Unwilling to miss out in the orchestrated campaign of calumny against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his certificate from the Chicago State University, Obi jumped on the tailboard of Atiku’s bandwagon to satisfy his uncanny and insatiable thirst for cheap media attention long after his Labour Party had dissociated itself from a bogus call to action by the former Vice President.

“In his drivel, Peter Obi demanded that the President reintroduce himself to Nigerians, as though the 8.9 million Nigerians who voted him last February were all groggy when they made their free democratic choice.

Mr. Obi must know that President Tinubu does not need a re-introduction. He does not have any identity problem except the one contrived by the Atikus and Peters of our political firmament.

“The 8.9 million Nigerians who voted him into office were, and remain, aware of his outstanding record and accomplishments as a defender of democracy, freedom, social and economic justice for over three decades.”
