The current minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, was asked to choose between the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and the flag bearer of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, during an interview with Channels Television.
In response to the question, he stated that both of them are his friends and are qualified for the presidency, but his vote would be cast in the upcoming election.While raring them based on analysis, he stated that Tinubu became the Governor of Lagos State and built it from the ground up while Peter Obi continued from where he stopped after he became his successor.
According to him, “The two men and their track records are good, but you must go into the nitty-gritty of the analysis. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu came to Lagos when there was nothing. Everything was scattered. I lived in Lagos, so I can tell you. He did what he was supposed to do and then reformed the financial system and everything to put a solid foundation and draw a road map for successors. “
“I came to Anambra state when everything was scattered just like Lagos. I rebuilt the foundation of governance in that state, but I could not finish. But I did infrastructure and people can see it. Peter Obi was building on my foundation even though he would disagree with me on infrastructure. So during his first tenure, he didn’t do infrastructure.”
