Presidential spokesperson, Daniel Bwala, has said former presidential candidate Peter Obi has a shallow knowledge of economics and governance.

This was after Obi appeared on Arise TV to speak on how he would have handled Nigeria's economy in a manner different from how President Bola Tinubu is running it.

Reacting, Bwala stated that despite Obi's attempt to sound different, he still agreed with Tinubu's removal of petrol subsidy.

He said, "Is anybody watching @PeterObi on Arise TV? He agreed with our policy of removal of subsidy and unifications of the foreign exchange; he claimed he would have done it better than us in an 'organized manner'.

"He was asked what is the 'organized manner'. He played with words yet to arrive at agreeing with us.

"Anybody with rational mind knows these guys are just looking to grab power; but they don’t have any alternative agenda.

"He seem to have Very shallow knowledge of economics and governance

"Remember this is even an interview anchored by a member of his Obidient movement ohhh that’s why you don’t hear 'I put it to you' no barking like a Rottweiler; Yet 'if it didn’t Dey it didn’t Dey'."
