Presidency Dismisses Peter Obi’s Resignation Demand as “Childish and Hollow”

The Presidency has rejected Peter Obi’s call for President Tinubu to resign, calling it a “childish and unwarranted distraction.” In a statement, the administration argued that Nigeria’s presidential system with fixed terms differs from the UK’s parliamentary model Obi referenced. Defending its record, the statement highlighted APC victories in recent state and senatorial elections as proof of continued public support. It also cited security gains, economic indicators such as rising GDP growth and foreign reserves, and ongoing infrastructure projects like the Lagos-Calabar and Sokoto-Badagry superhighways. The Presidency criticized Obi’s tenure as Anambra governor, describing it as a “colossal failure,” and reaffirmed progress in education loans, electricity reforms, and oil production. It concluded that Obi’s demands were mere political grandstanding with no merit.
