Tinubu: Borrowing not cancer, leprosy - Presidency fires back at Peter Obi

The presidency criticized Peter Obi, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress, for his comments on President Bola Tinubu's foreign loans. Tinubu's spokesperson, Bayo Onanuga, stated that borrowing is not a disease and that every sovereign nation borrows money. Obi had compared borrowing to leprosy and cancer, claiming it poses a serious issue when used for personal purposes instead of creating jobs.
