Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has criticised the distribution of luxury vehicles for President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 campaign mobilisation.
He described the move as “profound insensitivity” and an abuse of public trust.
Obi in a post seen by Dockaysworld, said the decision reflects misplaced priorities at a time when many Nigerians are struggling with hunger, unemployment, and insecurity.
Recall a video of the branded vehicles went viral the day before, prompting widespread reactions.
Obi noted that ordinary citizens are facing deepening poverty while political leaders continue to parade brand-new Land Cruisers, Hiluxes, and Hummers.
Obi argued that leadership should focus on feeding the hungry, improving healthcare, supporting unemployed youths, and securing communities.
He said distributing luxury campaign vehicles does nothing to address the suffering of the people.
Obi expressed concern that children are dropping out of school because families cannot afford fees.
He added that mothers are dying during childbirth due to a lack of basic medical supplies.
He said insecurity is tearing families apart while leaders prioritise political theatrics.
The former Anambra governor described the vehicle distribution as a moral failure disguised as political strategy.
He said the action betrays the essence of public service.
Obi called for leadership built on empathy, prudence, and accountability.
He added that Nigeria cannot continue on a path of wastefulness and insensitivity.
