The Presidency has accused the former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, of being envious of President Bola Tinubu’s position, an office the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the 2023 election has unsuccessfully sought six times.
The ex-VP’s criticism follows his economic reforms proposal and anti-corruption measures he highlighted in a recent tweet.
The statement released and signed on Sunday by the presidential Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, claimed that since Atiku’s loss to Tinubu, he has “shown more interest in undermining President Bola Ahmed Tinubu than in addressing his party’s internal crises.
The statement further noted that Atiku’s economic analysis demonstrated a significant misunderstanding of Nigeria’s current realities, saying his narratives indicates a lack of awareness of the pressing economic needs, which are now being addressed through President Tinubu’s leadership.
In furtherance, the presidency hailed Tinubu’s administration for a firm action plan to address the shortcomings that persisted during President Olusegun Obasanjo’s time when Atiku was vice president.
