Obi stated this during a meeting with Nigerians in Belgium recently.

“Once he comes here and gives you money, you will say Jagaban is the best candidate even when the man is not well. That’s the problem of the country.

Speaking further, Mr Obi said, “somebody said to me that this candidate fought Abacha regime to stand still. That he even lost everything. I said, but he has two planes now. Where is his company?

“My brother, we are in a crisis.

“That’s why I’m pleading to all of us. Let us go and take back our country and run it like any other country where the leader is responsible to the people. The people can question the rascality and the behaviour of their leader. Bad behaviour has become a measure of success in our system.”

The video was published by Njenje Media TV on YouTube on Saturday. While Obi confirmed his presence in the European country on Thursday as he met European Union officials, the date the video was recorded cannot be verified.

The health status of 70-year-old Tinubu has continued to generate concerns about his suitability for lead the country.

Recall that in February, a viral video revealed how Tinubu’s flowing garment was soaked from behind while his security aide covered his nose.

The former Lagos State governor has, however, insisted he does not need physical strength to be Nigeria’s president.
