2027: Peter Obi and others not keen on presenting manifestos, says Osinbajo’s former aide

Laolu Akande, former media aide to ex-Nigerian Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, accused Peter Obi, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate, and other opposition figures of failing to present their manifestos. Speaking on Channels Television on Wednesday, he said Obi’s platform remained unknown less than two months before the presidential election. Akande said Nigerians should not expect a politician to save them, urging people to organise in their communities, wards and local governments to choose their leaders and ensure their votes count.
