Senior Special Assistant to President Bola Tinubu on Digital Engagement, Strategy, and New Media, Otega Ogra, has taken a swipe at the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, over his comment about the President’s trip to Saint Lucia.
It was reported that Obi had slammed President Tinubu for leaving the country for Saint Lucia while a security crisis continues to plague the nation, describing the trip as a ‘holiday.’
In a swift reaction, Ogra described Obi as an ex-governor who failed to plan for the future of his state.
According to him, Obi cannot point to a sustaining legacy from his two-term administration in Anambra, adding that President Tinubu’s trip to Saint Lucia is beyond his understanding of geopolitics.
The presidential aide further said that the President’s trip to the Caribbean country is an effort to place Nigeria where it needs to be.
“Someone who failed to plan for Anambra’s future and can’t point to a sustaining legacy from his admin can certainly not understand the importance of this trip by his President to the Caribbeans. To him, it is a ‘holiday’. To those in the know of geopolitics and where Nigeria needs to be and how it can get there quickly, it is a masterstroke,” he said.
The Presidency had, before Ogra’s tweet, issued a response to Obi’s remark, reiterating that the trip is a historic diplomatic engagement designed to rekindle ancestral bonds and deepen cooperation between Nigeria and the Caribbean nation.
