Buhari Lacks Capacity, Says Kenneth Okonkwo, Peter Obi’s Spokesperson
The Labour Party’s Peter Obi’s presidential candidate, Kenneth Okonkwo, has stated that President Muhammadu Buhari has the necessary skills.
During a question-and-answer session on Tuesday morning’s episode of Arise TV, Okonkwo made the statement.
The seasoned Nollywood actor was responding to Buhari’s remarks that he cannot be blackmailed because he has no residence outside of Nigeria.
“When he [Buhari] tells you he doesn’t have a house anywhere [outside Nigeria], he is being sincere about it,” Okonkwo said.
“I can tell you the closest I reached to President Buhari. I can tell you that there has not been any proof of any personal corruption in his name.
“No doubt about that, but that is talking about character, and that is why we are saying the three Cs are the irreducible minimum for the next president.
“Because character is not enough, you must have capacity. You must have competence. President Buhari is lacking in capacity maybe because of his age, I don’t know.
“Because a man who has sat in the hospital for eight months outside Nigeria when he is the president certainly will lose track of certain events. Maybe his competence may be questionable. As you know, his certificate is still being doubted whether he did his primary school or secondary school. So we need these three Cs.”
