A former presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has told Nigerians not to vote for President Bola Tinubu next year, pointing out how he himself said he shouldn’t be given a second term if he fails to improve electricity supply within four years.
Obi wrote on X: “If I don’t give you constant electricity in four years, don’t vote for me for a second term,” Obi quoted the president as saying.
The former Anambra governor argued that the condition Tinubu set for himself had been met, in the negative, and that Nigerians should hold him to his word.
Describing the current situation as “a glaring display of disregard for promises and a lack of trust,” Obi said power generation had declined from the over 4,000 megawatts recorded when Tinubu assumed office in 2023.
The average now falling below that figure, while electricity tariffs had risen considerably.
