Presidency not turn by turn, says Obi

The Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has taken a swipe at the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, saying Nigeria’s presidency is not “turn by turn”.

Speaking on Monday when he arrived in Delta State for his campaign, the former Anambra State governor explained that if the presidency was to be turn by turn, it would be his “turn” by succeeding the President, Major General Buhari (retd), this year.

“Somebody said it is his turn to be president, I want to tell you that the president is not turn by turn. If it is turn by turn, it is supposed to be my turn but we are not using turn by turn. It is the turn of Nigerians to be president especially those full of energy.

“No tribe buys bread or rice cheaper, no religion buys bread cheaper. Vote for commitment and capacity.
