Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, has accused President Bola Tinubu of running a government that thrives on propaganda and lies.

Obi made the accusation on Monday while featuring on Arise Television’s “Morning Show”.

He also alleged that the current administration is causing the lingering crisis in the Labour Party.

Obi further stated that the Tinubu government employs divide and rule strategy to weaken the opposition, adding that even families are not spared.

He said: “This is what you get, always, right? This is what you get always in Nigeria, because we now live in a country of propaganda and lies – and they manufacture it.

“The problem we have in Labor Party is problem instigated and sustained by the government of today.

“I don’t need to tell you when you have a party chairman who calls a state governor a dwarf and dwarf thinking. Forget about me, so it’s not weak.

“Okay, I’m weak, but it’s not weak. Is every other person there weak? So we’re not sincere with ourselves.

“You speak the truth and they call you names. And we now live in a country of propaganda and lies. They are trying to put problems everywhere, they want to even put problems in families.”
