A pro-APC group has urged Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar to invest their money in the nation in order to assist address the recent economic challenges facing the country.
The group also accused Peter Obi of the Labour Party and Atiku Abubakar of the PDP of hoarding $1 trillion each in their bank accounts, while Nigerians suffer from poverty.
The group, known as the Confederation of All Progressives Congress (APC) Support Group, made these claims at a news conference in Abuja on Saturday.
Its director-general, Mohammed Kailani, said that Obi and Atiku should focus on solving the problems in their own parties instead of criticizing Tinubu’s administration.
Kailani said that Obi and Atiku were pretending to care for the country, but they were actually selfish and greedy.
“I advise both opposition leaders, henceforth, to first strategise on how to solve the problems in their political parties first.
“They should do this by using strategies that are grounded in realism, evidence and comprehensive planning in addressing the complex challenges they have before coming out to talk or advise an administration that is doing well.
“The opposition leaders pretend when making comments that they wish the country well, especially when Peter Obi of the Labour Party has about $1 trillion kept in his bank, Fidelity Bank.
“And, Atiku Abubakar, having about the same amount stashed around the world, monies they could have invested in the country to help the masses of the country get employment and pull out of poverty.
“Today after their defeats they have now resorted to wishful thinking politics to clear the hangover of their defeats,” he said.
Kailani also expressed his support for Tinubu, whom he described as a visionary and a strategic thinker.
He said that Tinubu had a clear and coherent plan based on evidence and realism to improve the quality of life of all Nigerians.
He appealed to the opposition to allow Tinubu face the challenges of Nigerians without distraction. He said that Tinubu meant well and should be supported by all Nigerians to achieve his desired goals.
