Presidential spokesman, Bayo Onanuga has mocked opposition figures following the poor performance of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in the just concluded by-elections.
In a post on X on Monday morning, Onanuga shared a picture of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party’s Peter Obi, and former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai with the caption: “How is the market now?”
The remark, seen as a taunt, comes amid renewed questions about the relevance and strength of opposition parties in the current political climate.
Newspot reported that the opposition leaders, who are targeting President Bola Tinubu’s removal in 2027, participated in the election via the African Democratic Congress, ADC, to test their popularity.
However, Newspot reports that the All Progressives Congress, APC, cleared the majority of the seats, with the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, recording some victories.
