Peter Obi manipulative liar, Tinubu didn’t borrow more than Obasanjo, Jonathan, Buhari – Omokri

 A former presidential aide, Remo Omokri has accused a key
member of the opposition coalition, Peter Obi of lying that President Bola
Tinubu borrowed more than ex-Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo, Musa Yar’Adua,
Goodluck Jonathan, and Muhammadu Buhari.

 

Omokri described Obi as a “manipulative trader whose lies
can never make him a transformative leader.”

 

He insisted that Nigeria’s debt profile has reduced from
$108.2 billion on May 29, 2023, to $94.2 billion.

 

Posting on X, Omokri noted that Obi’s desperation to become
Nigeria’s president has made him keep lying.

 

He wrote: “On the issue of debt, Peter Obi blatantly lied
about President Tinubu borrowing more money than Presidents Obasanjo, Yar’adua,
Jonathan, and Buhari combined.

 

“Nigeria’s debt has actually reduced from $108.2 billion on
May 29, 2023, to $94.2 billion today. What Peter Obi did was convert the $94.2
billion into Naira using the floated Naira rate of N1560 to $1 to give the
impression that our debt has increased.

 

“When President Tinubu took office, our total debt was
N49.85 trillion. But this was when Naira was N400 to $1. As of the end of 2024,
our total public debt was N144.67 trillion.

 

“Now, while it may seem that our total debt has increased
from N49.85 trillion to N144.67 trillion, the fact is that the N144.67 trillion
is calculated using an exchange rate of N1536 to $1.

 

“However, when you quantify our debt in dollars rather than
Naira, our total debt has actually reduced by over $14 billion.

 

“God sparing my life, I will appear on a live TV programme
to present irrefutable evidence from the Debt Management Office to the Nigerian
people.

 

“How can someone go on air and lie so blatantly? Peter Obi
is a national security threat to Nigeria, because gullible Nigerians and
unaware foreigners will watch his lies and believe them.

 

“Foreign investors may be swayed by his lies and refrain
from investing in Nigeria. And those already in Nigeria may panic and start
divesting.

 

“Peter Obi’s lies have consequences that will affect the
economy and your pocket. His desperation to be President of Nigeria has made
him careless with his words.”
