APC Chieftain Says Tinubu Has Failed and Could Be a One-Term President
APC chieftain Jesutega Onokpasa has openly criticized President Bola Tinubu, saying his administration has failed badly in delivering good governance. Speaking during an interview with Arise Television on Sunday, Onokpasa warned that if Tinubu’s performance does not improve, he could end up serving only one term.
Onokpasa also spoke about Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, who he revealed is his cousin, and questioned the significance of his recent move to the APC. According to him, Oborevwori’s defection adds no real value to either the party or the state.
He stressed that instead of celebrating defections, the APC should focus on fixing the country and governing properly. “It’s not about people joining our party,” he said. “It’s about whether we are ruling well. In that sense, we have failed badly.”
Onokpasa accused Tinubu of failing to address the country’s hardship, saying the president has not been able to provide food or ease the suffering of Nigerians. Speaking on his cousin’s switch to the APC, he said, “Governor Oborevwori did not even inform me before defecting. I have no idea why he joined us, but I wish him well.”
