Vice President Kashim Shettima on Wednesday threw shades at the presidential candidate of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) saying the businessman-turned politician does not have what it takes to be president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Speaking at a rally of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akure, the Ondo State capital, Shettima said, “the ability to import cheap South African wine does not make one a guru in economics. Peter Obi in spite of all his pretensions about the knowledge of the economy. His performance as governor of Anambra was a dead mediocre”

According to him, Obi cannot boast of any achievements in the past 25 years of democratic governance in the country.

He went on to say, “you know it is cheap to vie for presidency of Nigeria, especially like for my good friend Peter Obi who thinks he can go out of protocol to greet our young victorious Flamingoes, the female footballers”

Speaking further, the vice president said, “Peter Obi called Lagos home, not Ekuloba (Anambra State). That goes to show that he is benefitting from the quality of leadership provided by President Bola Tinubu in Lagos.

“I challenge them to come out and tell us their major achievements in the past 25 years of democratic governance in this country”.
