Peter Obi, running mate to Atiku Abubakar, presiedential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), says the period Nigeria is in calls for sober reflection and not for dancing “Shaku Shaku.”

“Shaku Shaku” is a popular dance step common among entertainers and young Nigerians.

Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo had said he is learning the dance step ahead of the 2019 general election.

Speaking with journalists at the Nnamdi Azikiwe airport in Abuja upon his arrival from Dubai on Monday, Obi said the Atiku team is spending its time thinking of how to create jobs and not learning how to dance “Shaku Shaku.”

“I have not had the opportunity of reading his comments as I haven’t seen the dailies. I know Vice-President Osibanjo is a gentleman and may not have made such a comment,” Obi said.

“However, while I am not against people dancing or learning how to dance ‘Shaku Shaku’, as I believe it is one of those things that is keeping our people going on in this very difficult times, I believe that the crossroads that we have found ourselves in as a nation requires sober reflection.

“For me in particular, this period calls for sober reflection not dancing or learning how to dance as there are many challenges facing our nation at the moment. Not the least being recently having our country named the world headquarters of extreme poverty with over eighty seven million people. Worse still millions more are losing their jobs, with four million by the third quarter of this year alone.

“Millions of Nigerians go to bed hungry not knowing where the meal for the next day will come from, hundreds of thousands risk death by crossing the Sahara and the Mediterranean Sea to wherever they can make a living.

“These and other challenges are indicative of the dire straits facing us as a nation today. And these are what we on the Atiku team are spending our time with the best minds on how to start creating jobs and putting food on people’s table. We must get Nigeria to start working again for the good of everyone.”

With all these killings, kidnapping, hunger, death traps everywhere, a pastor is dancing shaku-shaku

He is not even bothered!

To think that this same Osibanjo was insulting Adeleke the dancing senator

Curse be upon anyone that will re-elect this current administration

Government of insensitivity. God will surely judge them!

No sane person will listen to Peter Obi and Osibanjo and decides to vote for Buhari/Osibanjo

Peter Obi has raised issues! These are issues that should keep any serious government awake! Not learning to dance shaku-shaku!

Buhari no even pain me! Am just disappointed by Osibanjo! Probably because I expected much

How many jobs did he create as Anambra state governor? Atiku once served as chairman of National planning council, National council on privatisation, economic management team, how many jobs did he create? They should show us the number of jobs they created while in office and stop trying to deceive the people.

CilicMarin:
PDP Is daft. Osinbajo made the statement to mock Adeleke and PDP but because everybody in wadata House of IPOB at brainless and only understands Words like Looting and Stealing, they literally took the words and not the sarcasm in it....



Anyway, we have seen the best of the PDP as depicted in the pictures below....and Nigerians have now affirmed that Affliction Shall Not Befall Us Again..

Peter at present has nothing to do with Sabmiller! Quit lying in a public forum.

Wiseandtrue:

You don't know what you are saying! Peter Obi was an outstanding governor during his time!

Everything mustn't be about politics! Respect must be given to those that it is due in other to encourage good leadership!
Learn to say the truth it isn't difficult!

are you hungry?
