  "account": "Former Edo State Governor and All Progressives Congress member, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, criticized Peter Obi's 2027 presidential campaign, describing him as a trader with no viable alternative to President Bola Tinubu's administration. Oshiomhole questioned Obi's economic policies and ability to provide a long-term solution for Nigerians, arguing that Obi's approach prioritises short-term gains over sustainable development. The senator contrasted Obi's leadership style with that of Tinubu, emphasising the need for statesmen to focus on the interests of future generations and build enduring institutions. Oshiomhole also addressed Obi's contradictory stances on fuel subsidies and the student loan scheme, highlighting the lack of consistency in Obi's policy positions. Additionally, the senator alleged that Obi had failed to pay taxes in Nigeria, keeping his assets in tax havens, and claimed that Obi had admitted to this allegation.",
