It's quite simple. You cannot give what you do not have. Peter Obi clearly lacks the intellectual range required to engage meaningfully with the most critical issues confronting Nigeria. There is hardly any interview where you hear him rigorously dissect matters of finance, energy, or broader macroeconomic policy. The depth just isn’t there. He would always beat around the bush and bamboozle his way through the questions.
What makes it worse is that he hasn’t compensated for this gap by surrounding himself with individuals who possess the requisite expertise to guide or sharpen his thinking in these areas. Leadership, at that level, is as much about the quality of your advisers as it is about your own capacity.
When your inner circle includes figures like Serah Ibrahim who thrives more in this space as a political troll, it becomes difficult to take the ambition seriously. At that point, it starts to feel less like a presidential project and more like a joke stretched far beyond its limit.

I think Nigeria’s political landscape has been particularly underwhelming since Peter Obi came onto the scene. The quality of discourse from the opposition has remained below par. I am still disappointed by his shallow comments on the tax laws; they lacked substance, as usual.
