Presidency: Obi is Overhyped, He Lacks Record Needed to Lead Nigeria

The Presidency has dismissed the high expectations surrounding the bid for the presidency by the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Peter Obi, saying governance is not achieved through magic.This follows its criticism of the plan by the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, to subsidise crude for local refineries, saying the model failed when implemented under former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration.
