2023: Afenifere Leader, Ayo Adebanjo Endorses Peter Obi, Says Tinubu Is ‘Incompetent’

Ayo Adebanjo Backs Peter Obi For Presidency

Speaking on an online radio programme, Adebanjo said Obi has the ability to “rule independently” unlike the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, who would give continuity to the incompetence of President Muhammadu Buhari.

He called on Nigerians to put tribal differences aside and vote for Obi, who he claimed would not disappoint them if he wins the 2023 presidential election.

The Afenifere leader said he has lost confidence in Tinubu because he sold Buhari to Nigerians in 2015 for his own selfish interest, and would give continuity to “incompetence” if elected.

He said, “It is only Peter Obi that can rule independently without the influence of these criminals in the government. Tinubu will only give continuity to Buhari’s incompetence.

“We know Peter Obi very well , that’s why we endorsed him. He will not disappoint Nigerians, let’s put tribal differences apart and vote the right leader in.

“Tinubu sold Buhari to over 200 million Nigerians for his own selfish interest of wanting to rule after Buhari. None of them loves Nigeria.”

The Afenifere leader said the South-East should be trusted with power, adding that the geopolitical zone deserves to lead the country.

“Easterners are also Nigerians , they deserve to rule. I am sure Peter Obi will not subject himself to the northerners like Tinubu and Atiku would do if elected,” he added.

KanyiDaily recalls that in May, Ayo Adebanjo had asked Yemi Osinbajo and Bola Tinubu to drop their presidential ambitions for candidates from the South East.
