Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, says his counterpart in the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi does not know his way to his state, Anambra.
The APC presidential candidate spoke during the flag off of his campaign in Jos, Plateau state on Tuesday.
The widely attended event was graced by top APC chieftains including President Muhammadu Buhari.
Tinubu, considered to be in a three horse race with Obi and Atiku Abubakar of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, spoke amidst the controversy raised by Governor Charles Soludo of Anambra state that Obi will not win the 2023 presidential election.
Soludo dismissed Obi’s presidential bid, describing the LP candidate as selfish with his ambition and, trying to compromise the south east interest.
The Anambra helmsman said Obi’s ambition has destroyed the chances of the region to negotiate a better deal with either Atiku or Tinubu who he said stood a better chance to win the election.
Speaking at his campaign on Tuesday, Tinubu further shaded Obi, describing him incapable to run the country.
If Obi did well as Anambra governor, Tinubu said the LP candidate would not be living in Lagos state. Tinubu, a former Lagos governor has built his presidential campaign on his achievements in the state.
He however vowed to send Obi bsck to his state after wining the presidential election next year.
Tinubu said: “Peter Obi, Haaa! This Obidient. He lives in Lagos, not in Anambra. He doesn’t know the road. We will return him to Anambra.”
