Presidency Labels Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, and Nasir el-Rufai as Disgruntled Politicians Amid Coalition Formation

Hey there, let me break this down for you. The Presidency has come out swinging, labeling some big names in Nigerian politics as disgruntled politicians. We’re talking about Atiku Abubakar, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, and former governor of Kaduna State, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai. These guys have been making waves recently, but the Presidency isn’t holding back on the criticism.

According to Naija News, Atiku, who’s also the 2023 presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), made a bold announcement on Thursday. He declared that a coalition of opposition political parties has been formed, with one clear mission: to take down the ruling party and President Bola Tinubu. This move is seen as a direct challenge to the current administration, and it’s got everyone talking.

Bayo Onanuga Responds: Calling Out Frustrated Politicians

Now, let’s shift gears and talk about the response from the Presidency. Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, didn’t mince words.

Onanuga emphasized that President Tinubu is all about governance and building a prosperous country. He stated that the President is laser-focused on tackling the tough issues facing Nigeria, and he’s not about to be distracted by a group of politicians who seem more interested in their own self-interests than the public good. He even went as far as to say that these politicians are simply Tinubu haters, and their agenda is to stop the President’s progress.

To put it in Onanuga’s own words, he wrote: “My message to the coalition of Tinubu haters: President Tinubu is focused on governance to build a prosperous country. He is on the way to achieving this. Two months to his midterm, he has many solid achievements to showcase. Intractable problems are being tackled headlong. He cannot be distracted by the so-called coalition of politicians. They are not politicians after the Public Good. It’s all about their self-interest. They are disgruntled. They are a frustrated lot. The leaders are sore losers. The coalition is an amalgam of Tinubu haters. Their agenda is to stop Tinubu.”

So, there you have it. The political landscape in Nigeria continues to heat up, with strong words being exchanged on both sides. As we move closer to the midterm, it will be interesting to see how these tensions play out and whether the coalition can make a significant impact. Stay tuned, folks, because this story is far from over!
