A senior aide to Atiku Abubakar criticizes Peter Obi after a video shows Obi running to board a flight. Demola Olarewaju, a Senior Political Assistant to Atiku under the African Democratic Congress (ADC), says the scene reflects poor time management and does not look “presidential.” The criticism follows online sharing of a clip by an X user, which depicts Obi hurrying at an unspecified airport.
Olarewaju’s comments frame the moment as a negative public signal ahead of an interview, while the outlets reporting the story focus primarily on the accusation rather than verifying the broader circumstances around the flight or schedule. The reports note that the airport is not identified in the video and that the post describes an interview setting, but they do not provide additional corroboration beyond the shared clip and Olarewaju’s reaction on X.
Across the coverage, the main difference is limited: both outlets present the same core claim—that Olarewaju attributes Obi’s actions to time-management problems—and both tie it to the same social media video and response on X.
