Vice President Kashim Shettima has criticised the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, over his performance as Anambra State Governor.
Naija News reports that Shettima took a swipe at Peter Obi on Wednesday at the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign rally in Ondo State.
According to Shettima, Peter Obi’s eight years as governor of Anambra State were mediocre, and Nigerians should not be deceived by sweet talk and statistics.
Shettima noted that importing cheap South African wines does not make anyone an economic guru.
He said, “The ability to import cheap South African wines doesn’t make one a guru in economics.
“Peter Obi’s performance as governor of Anambra State was at best mediocre.”
Shettima also mocked Peter Obi for calling Lagos his home, saying he is enjoying the quality of leadership President Tinubu provided in the state.
The Vice President said Tinubu turned Lagos from a struggling state into the economic capital of Nigeria and Africa, with good roads, strong revenue and massive investments, unlike Peter Obi, who left Anambra after eight years as governor and chose to settle in Lagos.
He added that regarding the forthcoming election, Nigerians should judge candidates by their records, not by their speeches on television and social media.
