Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate for the Labour Party, has criticized President Bola Tinubu's recent remarks regarding the government's approach to external borrowing. Obi contended that the current level of borrowing in Nigeria should be viewed as a serious issue, likening it to a "killer cancer" rather than a trivial matter. This statement comes in response to Tinubu's assertion that borrowing is not inherently negative, emphasizing the necessity of loans for national development. Obi's comments highlight the ongoing debate about the implications of Nigeria's borrowing practices on the economy.
