Peter Obi Criticizes Nigerian Leaders

Peter Obi, former presidential candidate of the Nigeria===Labour Party (Nigeria), has publicly criticized some individuals who were once champions of democracy under the National Democratic Coalition (NADECO), including an apparent veiled jab at President Bola Tinubu. Obi stated that these individuals have become 'worse' than the late military ruler Sani Abacha in terms of democratic ideals and human rights. His remarks, shared on his X platform, highlight a perceived reversal of democratic values among former activists. The criticism comes amid the Nigeria===Independent National Electoral Commission's (INEC) delisting of Nigeria===African Democratic Congress (ADC) National Working Committee members, an action that has generated controversy and fueled concerns about the state of democracy in Nigeria. Obi's statements call for reform and emphasize that 'A New Nigeria is POssible'.
