Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser on Information and Strategy to President Bola Tinubu has stated that Peter Obi’s silence on the Supreme Court ruling granting financial autonomy to local government areas means that the 2024 presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP), is always quick to tweet unverified news about President Bola Tnubu.
Onanuga, stated this in a post on social media.
Recall that the apex court gave the historic ruling on Thursday, July 11 and the ruling received different reactions from Nigerians.
In a post shared on X this night, Onanuga said Obi’s silence since the ruling was delivered showed he is quick to tweet ‘’unverified news” about President Tinubu and Nigeria.
Describing Obi as the ‘defeated Labour Party presidential candidate, Onanuga wrote;
‘’Why is Peter Obi silent?
*More than 36 hours after the Supreme Court gave a landmark ruling, granting financial autonomy to Nigeria’s 774 local councils, Mr. Peter Obi, the defeated Labour Party candidate, has yet to utter a word on the epochal judgment. His silence confirms the belief that he is always quick to tweet unverified news about the Tinubu administration or our country. A good opposition statesman must be candid enough to applaud his political opponent when he has done some great deed. The Tinubu administration has succeeded in giving life back to our emasculated councils, using the instrumentality of the law. Even Atiku Abubakar has grudgingly admitted this. But Peter has been silent. He should break his silence and acknowledge that President Tinubu is making a great Nigeria possible.”
