The comments came during a recent interview where Sowore openly challenged the popular narrative that Peter Obi’s administration delivered major economic transformation in Anambra State.
According to him, many of the claims being celebrated about Obi’s achievements may not fully match the reality on ground. He argued that people should look closely at real data and visible infrastructure before drawing conclusions about his record.
Sowore did not hold back as he asked pointed questions that have now gone viral across social media. He queried whether any major landmark hospitals were built under Obi’s administration and also questioned the absence of major infrastructure projects like airports during his tenure.
His words have triggered heated reactions online, with supporters of Peter Obi defending his record while critics are using the moment to demand deeper scrutiny of past governments in Nigeria.
He also raised concerns about education and governance outcomes in Anambra during that period, insisting that public office holders should be judged based on clear, measurable developments rather than popular opinions or political emotions.
The comments have now reopened old political debates in Nigeria, especially as conversations around leadership, accountability, and 2027 political alignments continue to gain momentum.
Many Nigerians are divided, with some agreeing that leaders should be critically assessed, while others believe Sowore’s remarks were politically motivated.
