The Buhari Media Organisation, BMO, has accused the
Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, of copying his ideas
from President Muhammadu Buhari’s workbook in his recent interview on the US
news network, CNN.
The group said Obi was not in tune with what was happening
in a country he is aspiring to lead, saying he lacked originality.
BMO disclosed this in a statement signed by its Chairman,
Niyi Akinsiju, over the weekend in Abuja.
Part of the statement read: “Like many Nigerians, we listened to the twice-postponed pre-recorded CNN interview, and we were stunned that a man that had been pontificating about Nigeria’s problems lacks originality when it comes to proferring solution.
“We first noticed this from Obi’s response to a question on
how he would restart the economy, which seemed like he was reading from President
Buhari’s workbook.
“The Labour Party candidate spoke about ensuring that
Nigerians return to agriculture, pulling millions out of poverty and cutting
the cost of governance, which incidentally are part of what the Buhari
administration, which he delights in maligning, is doing right now”
BMO also argued that Obi’s comments on insecurity and
refineries were an indication of his lack of deep knowledge about governance at
a high level.
The group further urged Nigerians to challenge opposition
elements to be more definite in their campaign promises. (NAN)
