Lagos Presidential Rally: Tinubu Proclaims Obasanjo "Greatest Election Rigger"

The National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has described ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo as the greatest ‘election rigger’ in Nigeria.

Tinubu proclaimed this at the presidential rally of the ruling party in Lagos at the Teslim Balogun Stadium on Saturday.

When he was asked, Umaru Musa Yar’Adua admitted that the election which brought him into office was rigged.
Who conducted that election? Obasanjo. Obasanjo is the greatest election rigger in this country

Tinubu said He also the administration of Obasanjo and Atiku should be held responsible for the epileptic power supply in Nigeria because they both opposed the novel power generation project he introduced in Badagry. That the project was only continued because he (Tinubu) won them in court.

I introduced independent generating power projects in Badagry. What did he do? He and Atiku opposed it. I went to court. Who was my lawyer in court? Osinbajo. I won in court and we started generating 300MW, the first state to do it

Imagine, that was in 1999. If Nigeria was dedicated to electricity generation, you would not see Dunlop and Michelin move out of the country. Look at our roads, look at the vehicular density in Lagos alone

Tinubu also attacked the former Governor of Anambra state and Vice Presidential candidate of PDP, Mr. Peter Obi, saying he is only vast in creating what he described as "container economy"
