Presidential Candidate of the National Democratic Congress, NDC, Peter Obi, has questioned the borrowing profile of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, expressing concern over the country’s rising debt burden and growing poverty.
He made this remark while paying homage to the Plateau State Traditional Council, led by the Gbong Gwom Jos, Da Jacob Gyang Buba, at his palace in Jos, Plateau State, North-Central Nigeria.
Peter Obi also decried the persistent insecurity in the country, particularly in Plateau State, where recurring attacks have remained a major concern for decades.
He said meaningful change could only be achieved when Nigerians make deliberate and collective efforts to bring about the desired transformation.
In his response, the Gbong Gwom Jos and Chairman of the Plateau State Traditional Council, Da Jacob Gyang Buba, appreciated the visit and called on politicians to conduct their activities in ways that promote peace and avoid overheating the polity.
Obi later proceeded to a scheduled town hall meeting, where he was expected to interact with supporters as part of his political engagement in Plateau State.
