On Thursday, the All Progressives Congress (APC) criticized the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Mr. Peter Obi, for presenting himself as an all-knowing figure and a “philosopher’s stone” in tackling national challenges.
The APC argued that the former Anambra state governor left behind no notable achievements during his eight years in office at the Government House in Awka.
The APC stated on Thursday that while Nigerians welcomed the new year with hope for a prosperous 2025, Obi “was seemingly stuck in a replay of his jangling, gloom-ridden wishlist for our country”.

The party added that like his co-travellers in the Peoples Democratic Party PDP, Obi’s obsessive pessimism and endless but futile efforts to incite public outrage against the President Bola Tinubu administration “is borne out of their realization that Tinubu is unwittingly cementing their ultimate political irrelevance by his visionary and full-throttle reform and transformation of the fundamental pillars of our national life “.
“Obi’s New Year message, in which he claimed that the political, economic and security situation of our dear country is worsening daily, is misleading and appears intended to score cheap political points. This claim, at a time when all indicators show that our country is rebounding in significant measure across all sectors, casts Obi, squarely, as Nigeria’s leading doomsayer.
“Despite these and other initial beneficial outcomes of ongoing unprecedented reforms, the administration is doubling its effort to ensuring that the reforms deliver their fullest benefits for the sustainable growth and transformation of our country.
“In his New Year message, President Bola Tinubu acknowledged that the “cost of food and essential drugs remained a significant concern for many Nigerian households.” To reverse this trend, Mr. President assured that his administration was committed to lowering food prices by boosting food production and promoting local production of drugs.
“It is a thing of irony that Peter Obi, who now arrogates to himself to be omniscient and philosopher’s stone, when it comes to our nation’s challenges, left no record of significant achievement, let alone transformation of any kind, in his eight-year tenure as Governor of Anambra State.
“Like his co-travellers in the People’s Democratic Party PDP, Obi’s obsessive pessimism and endless but futile effort to incite public outrage against the administration is borne out of their realization that President Tinubu is unwittingly cementing their ultimate political irrelevance by his visionary and full-throttle reform and transformation of the fundamental pillars of our national life”, said party spokesman, Felix Morka.
