The Presidency has faulted Peter Obi’s call for President Bola Tinubu’s resignation, insisting that recent election victories and key economic indicators reflect growing confidence in the administration.
In a statement released by presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga, the Presidency described Obi’s comments as a misreading of Nigeria’s political system and current realities.
The government cited recent electoral victories secured by the All Progressives Congress in Ekiti and other by-elections as evidence that many Nigerians remain supportive of Tinubu’s leadership.
Defending its security strategy, the Presidency said security agencies have recorded major successes against terrorists and criminal groups, leading to improved safety in several parts of the country.
The statement also outlined economic achievements under the administration, including growth in foreign reserves, stronger government revenues, increased oil production and a significant rise in stock market performance.
According to the Presidency, reforms in education and electricity have also produced measurable results, including uninterrupted academic sessions and expanded investments in power infrastructure.
The government maintained that while economic pressures persist, ongoing reforms are gradually delivering results and should be judged by voters during the 2027 presidential election rather than through calls for resignation.
