 ‘Mockery of governance’ – Peter Obi on Adamawa LG chairmen’s wives’ trip to Turkey


The Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has faulted the trip of the wives of 21 local government chairmen in Adamawa State who were allegedly sponsored with public funds to Turkey under the guise of leadership training.


In a post on his verified X handle on Friday, Obi described the development as a glaring case of waste and a mockery of the very essence of governance.


“I have just read the disturbing report that the wives of 21 local government chairmen in Adamawa State were sponsored with public funds to travel to Turkey under the guise of leadership training.


“Today, while our children at the basic education level, whose education is the responsibility of local governments, are out of school, and those in school lack classrooms and teachers.


“Local government funds belong to the people, to the market woman, the farmer, the teacher, the pensioner, and every ordinary Nigerian who depends on government for basic amenities.


“Anything short of that is an abuse of office and should not be condoned. This is not only a glaring case of waste but a mockery of the very essence of governance,” he wrote.
