Lere Olayinka, the spokesperson for the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, has criticized former Vice President Atiku Abubakar’s leadership of the opposition, describing it as “a failure from the start.”
In a Facebook post, Olayinka mocked Atiku following his visit to former President Muhammadu Buhari in Kaduna, suggesting that any opposition led by Atiku would falter.
He claimed that Atiku would immediately abandon the opposition to join the All Progressives Congress (APC) if President Bola Tinubu offered him the 2027 presidential ticket.
“Those of us who have sense know that any opposition being led by Atiku is a failure from the beginning,” Olayinka wrote.
“Reason is, if tomorrow President Tinubu calls Atiku and tells him, ‘Don’t worry, I will hand over to you in 2027, just join APC,’ he will be in the APC immediately.”
Olayinka further ridiculed Atiku’s recent visit to Buhari, which Atiku claimed was to pay Sallah homage.
He stated that Atiku should instead pay homage to former President Olusegun Obasanjo during the Lisabi Day celebrations in Abeokuta.
“I am still waiting for Atiku to carry body and go to Abeokuta to pay Lisabi Day homage to OBJ sha,” he added.
