When looking someone who benefits from the misfortune of others or from confusion, look no further than Peter Obi – Presidential aide, Sunday Dare

The Special Adviser on Media & Public Communication to President Bola Tinubu, Sunday Dare, has accused Labour Party Presidential candidate in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, of being a person that benefits from the misfortune of others or from confusion. 

 

According to Dare, Obi’s statements following the unfortunate incidents in Anambra and Oyo state where some Nigerians died while scampering for free food items, lacks “statesmanship and decency.”

 

He wrote;

‘’When seeking someone who benefits from the misfortune of others or from confusion, what the Yoruba people describe as ‘Aríje nínú Màdàrú,’ look no further than Peter Obi. His recent remarks regarding the avoidable tragedies in Anambra and Oyo states lack statesmanship and decency, even as he wallows in the fading waters of his much-vaunted political victory. This attempt to score cheap political  point falls flat.

 

In times of unfortunate tragedy, leaders are expected to speak reasonably and offer support. President Tinubu canceled all programs, expressed profound sadness over the loss of lives, and ordered an immediate investigation. That is the way of true leaders. These unfortunate incidents have undoubtedly highlighted many critical issues that must be examined.

 

This government is committed to ensuring that the  economic difficulties of this period are resolved swiftly in Nigeria so that the standard of living of the average Nigerian can improve. However, we must not lose sight of the need for patience, orderliness, crowd management, and enforcement of necessary permits for such events. Yes, the government has a role to play, but citizens also have responsibilities. Beyond that the ongoing reforms have started to bear fruits and soon Nigeria will feel the positive impacts.”
