The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has called the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 general elections, Mr Peter Obi as the country’s leading prophet of doom.
APC in a statement explained that while all indicators recorded an impressive progression in the economy and a brighter future in the new year, Obi said that the country’s political, economic and security situation is worsening daily.
According to the statement: “While Nigerians celebrated the new year with hope for a more glorious 2025, Peter Obi, former Governor of Anambra State and presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections, was seemingly stuck in a replay of his jangling, gloom-ridden wishlist for our country.
“Obi’s New Year message, in which he claimed that our dear country’s political, economic and security situation 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.”–APC
