Sowore Tackles Peter Obi For Visiting Running Mate’s Abuja Hospital

The African Action Congress (AAC) presidential candidate, Omoyele Sowore, has tackled his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Peter Obi, for inspecting the hospital of his running mate, Dr Datti Baba-Ahmed, in Abuja.

Obi had earlier on his Twitter handle on Wednesday shared pictures from his visit to the Baze University Hospital, describing the institution owned by Baba-Ahmed as exemplary.

He said the institution is exemplary and reflective of a centre of excellence, and what domestic entrepreneurs and investors can contribute to nation-building.

Obi wrote, “This morning, I had the privilege of visiting the Baze University Hospital in Abuja and inspecting the facilities. Dr Datti Baba-Ahmed was on hand to show me around.

“This institution is exemplary and reflective of a centre of excellence, and what domestic entrepreneurs and investors can contribute to nation-building.

“With several more facilities like this, medical tourism for Nigerians will be a thing of the past. This is simply awesome. – PO.”

But reacting to the visit, Sowore said he was surprised that Obi visited Baba-Ahmed’s hospital rather than the ‘university teaching hospital’ he allegedly built in Anambra during his tenure as Anambra State governor.

He wrote, “I thought you & Datti would be inspecting the international standard “University Teaching Hospital” they claimed you built while you were governor of Anambra state and not a private hospital built by Datti, which obviously is not accessible/affordable to majority Of Nigerians!.”
