Obi Can’t Manage A Typical Nigerian Political Organisation – Sam Amadi

Sam Amadi, director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thought, says Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), may lack the political skills required to manage a Nigerian political organisation.

Speaking on Arise TV on Friday, Amadi said there is a deep dissonance between Obi’s political approach and the realities of the country’s political system.

He said the dissonance could make it difficult for the NDC presidential candidate to manage the interests and expectations of politicians.

“So the point I’m saying is, yes, Peter Obi’s political management capabilities may not be sufficiently good enough to manage Nigerian politics. That’s a big issue,” Amadi said.

“Secondly, there are some things like a deep dissonance between Peter and Nigerian politics.

“People forget that dissonance. So Peter is not capable. Peter cannot run a typical Nigerian political organisation.

“He knows that. Again, Peter is a minimalist. But if he can just sneak through this, he doesn’t have to open the whole place.”

On the exit of key Obidient Movement members from the NDC, Amadi described the defectors as activists who saw Obi as a vehicle for achieving their political ambitions.

“Most of the guys who got on this are not our comrades. They are not people who had a commitment. They are people who were activists; they saw a big show, and they went there. You were a vehicle via which they were going to get to a destination,” he said.

“Many of these guys are not leaving because there’s a fundamental disagreement with Peter Obi. It’s also because the career path, the strategic advantage they want to get, he can’t offer them.”

Yunusa Tanko, former national coordinator of the Obidient Movement, recently moved from the NDC to the Social Democratic Party (SDP), where he was made the coordinator of the party’s presidential campaign.

Tanko said he experienced a betrayal of trust and loyalty in Obi’s camp, which informed his departure.

The former Obidient leader said that although he appreciated the opportunity to serve Obi, he could not remain in a political group where his contributions were no longer valued.
