In a recent post on Monday, Bayo Onanuga, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy, expressed his opinion that Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), harbors bitterness.
Onanuga made this statement while referencing a post about Obi shared by Nwachukwu Chigozie @chigozie0102, an X user.
Chigozie referred to Obi as the ‘chief mourner’ and criticized him for allegedly engaging in activities that negatively portray Nigeria, such as traveling to Canada to demarket the country.
He wrote:
“Chief Mourner woke up, wore his usual mourning clothes and went to Canada to practice his market-to-market demarketing of Nigeria, while he was at it, the Mayor of the town got hold of the Mic and started singing the praises of Nigeria, Lagos in particular. The bitter loser didn’t know when he joined his hurriedly assembled crowd to start clapping for the mayor.”
The individual mentioned that after Obi’s recent trip to Canada, he expressed his disapproval of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) server malfunction during the previous presidential election.
Additionally, Obi claimed that the Bola Tinubu administration, along with its affiliated organizations, consistently resorted to name-calling and organizing town hall meetings centered around him.
Nevertheless, the spokesperson for the president shared the post on his official X account, referring to the former Governor of Anambra State as bitter.
He wrote:
“Bitter Obi”.
Bayo Onanuga, a presidential adviser, has urged Nigerians who are keeping dollars in their possession to sell them as soon as possible to avert financial ruin.
The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Information and Strategy has warned that the naira is about to rise, and speculators would lose money if they don’t sell their dollar holdings before then.
Onanuga made the remark using his X platform account in response to news that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) had cleared a significant backlog of foreign exchange.
As previously reported, the CBN has cleared the $7 billion foreign exchange (FX) backlog that existed when Yemi Cardoso took over as Governor of the central bank.
Hakama Sidi Ali, Acting Director of Corporate Communications at the CBN, revealed this development in a statement on Wednesday.
According to her, all genuine claims have been handled and only those claims proven to be bogus were not paid.
Ali added that the CBN hired an independent auditing company, Deloitte Consulting, to thoroughly review all claims, and any incorrect transactions were sent to competent authorities for further investigation.
In response to the news, Onanuga wrote:
“With backlog FX settled, Naira is set to appreciate further, faster. Currency speculators should quickly dump their stock of dollars to avoid sorrows and tears.”
