The Presidency has criticized Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, regarding his performance in a recent interview. Daniel Bwala, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Policy Communication, expressed these remarks in a post on his verified X account. The comments were made in response to Obi's interview, although specific details of the interview were not disclosed.

The Presidency has criticized former presidential candidate Peter Obi for his call for President Bola Tinubu to resign, labeling the demand as "childish" and "anti-democratic." Obi's request followed the resignation announcement of Keir Starmer, who cited public dissatisfaction over economic challenges as a reason for his departure. The criticism highlights ongoing political tensions in Nigeria.

Bayo Onanuga, a presidential spokesman, stated that he does not agree with the perception of widespread hunger in Nigeria, claiming that many citizens are benefiting from the policies of President Bola Tinubu's administration. He expressed these views during an interview on Arise Television, where he highlighted various government initiatives that he believes are positively impacting the populace.

Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Publicity, has rejected claims that Tinubu stated he would not seek re-election if he failed to improve Nigeria's power supply. Onanuga described these assertions as 'out of context' and dismissed the resurfacing of such claims in various discussions, according to Ripples Nigeria.

Mr. Paul Ibe, Media Adviser to Atiku Abubakar, has called for President Bola Tinubu's resignation, citing the government's inability to effectively tackle insecurity in Nigeria. Ibe made these remarks during an appearance on Arise Television’s Prime Time programme, emphasizing that addressing security issues is a fundamental duty of any government.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) criticized Bola Tinubu's administration for what it termed "grave insensitivity" following comments made by Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga, who reportedly stated he does not perceive the hunger and hardship expressed by Nigerians. The ADC urged political figures Atiku Abubakar and Rotimi Amaechi to remain vigilant in protecting the electoral process.
