Former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi, has criticised what he described as Nigerias persistent habit of prioritising waste over human wellbeing, warning that the countrys worsening development crisis stems from poor leadership choices rather than a lack of resources.
In a personally signed statement, Obi condemned the reported spending of about 9 million on foreign lobbyists in Washington, describing it as a painful reminder of how public funds are routinely deployed to manage perception abroad while conditions at home continue to deteriorate.
