The candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, has taken a swipe at President Bola Tinubu over a viral video of his long convoy following his arrival in Lagos from Europe on Wednesday. Obi’s comment comes amid the outrage being expressed by Nigerians over the large convoy of President Tinubu during a recent visit to Lagos State.He spoke on Thursday at St. Faith Cathedral, Church of Nigeria Anglican Communion, Awka, during the burial of the late Dean Emeritus of the Church of Nigeria, the Most Reverend Maxwell Anikwenwa, who died at 83.According to him, there was a need to cut down on the cost of governance, which has always been his position about governance.
Obi’s call for sacrifice by Nigerian leaders comes about two weeks after Tinubu in a Democracy Day address on June 12, 2023, called on Nigerians to sacrifice more in the wake of the removal of subsidy on petrol by the federal government, which had not only pushed the cost of petrol up but equally led to skyrocketing prices of goods and services.SaharaReporters.
