Last week, Obi met with Atiku, former Senate President Bukola Saraki, and PDP leader Sule Lamido. In an interview with BBC Hausa, Atiku suggested he might support Obi in the 2027 presidential election.
However, speaking on Saturday in Abuja, Onanuga said: “We are only surprised that they are plotting just one year after an election they lost. They are still behaving like sore losers.
“We are not bothered by the games they are playing, as they are revealing their mindset. They are mere politicians who only think about the next election.
“President Tinubu is a true statesman who is concerned about fulfilling his promises to Nigerians.
“At the moment, he is very busy resetting the economy of our country for the better, laying the foundation that ought to have been laid decades ago.”
