JUST IN: Tinubu Was Invited to G20 Meeting in India Only to Observe, Take Pictures – Atiku’s Camp

The camp of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has mocked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his invitation to attend the G20 summit in India.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Daniel Bwala, a spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar, took to social media on Monday to mock the G20 meeting and the president’s attendance, saying that the G20 had a “global picnic” and that Nigeria’s president was invited to “watch brief and see the importance of picnic.”

Bwala also criticized the lack of specific resolutions or investment plans that came out of the meeting. He said that the African Union’s (AU) new status as a permanent member of the G20 was meaningless because the AU has only one vote.

Bwala also dismissed Tinubu’s meetings with Indian businessmen, saying that they would not lead to any concrete investment because those businessmen must have been reading news about how Nigerian investors are losing their money due to incoherent policies and corruption.

Bwala concluded by saying that the G20 meeting was a waste of time and that Nigeria would not see any benefits from it unless the government reforms its laws, allows the private sector to thrive, breaks the backbone of corruption, and provokes national consciousness and patriotic action.

In 8 years of [President Muhammadu] Buhari’s trips, what did we see as per foreign investment? What was spent for those trips was more than what came in as foreign investment,” Bwala said.

Highlights of G20 meeting in India

1. G20 had a global picnic

2. No specific resolution

3. Nigerias president was invited to watch brief and see the importance of picnic

4. African Union made a permanent member which means nothing because the entire AU has only one vote

5.  PBAT met Indian businessmen for handshake;  no specific investment plans and timelines; nothing would come out of that because those businessmen men must have been reading news about how our own  domestic investors are loosing their monies due to incoherent policies and corruption

6. PBAT shook hands with Biden and they call it a sideline meeting

7. Biden only focused on PBAT’s leadership of ECOWAS to fight African countries seeking to liberate themselves from colonial economic carnage. Nothing else mattered to Biden

8.  Hand shakes, photos and more photos; more of the same. We have seen the movie before

9. Off to Dubai for more of the same

Moral of the story;

Until we come back home and reform our laws, allow private sector to thrive, break the backbone of corruption and provoke national consciousness and patriotic action; nothing would change. In 8 years of PMB’s trips, what did we see as per foreign investment? What was spent for those trips was more than what came in as foreign investment.”

Tinubu was invited to the meeting by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He is currently in the United Arab Emirates to resolve some bilateral issues.
