The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has challenged President Bola Tinubu to go to all of the remaining 33 states of Nigeria after spending an evening in Akwa Ibom State.

Obi made the decision in response to Tinubu’s remark in Akwa Ibom State, the place he promised to sleep over final night time.

Speaking on the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential marketing campaign rally in Uyo, President Tinubu mentioned he would keep in a single day and have a “second term presidential sleep.”

Posting on X, Obi congratulated Tinubu on spending an evening in Akwa Ibom State, whereas urging him to straight interact with Nigerians.

He mentioned: “I sincerely hope this visit will inspire you to travel to the remaining 33 states of the federation, spend time with the people and, more importantly, explain what your administration has done with the N15.8 trillion saved from the removal of fuel subsidy, the over $100 billion you have borrowed, the increased revenues accruing to the government from taxing Nigerians, and the additional government revenues which your administration celebrated last year as having surpassed its target.”
