According to a report by Viable TV, Jonah Bonet, a former special adviser on stakeholders’ engagement to ex-Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai, has harshly criticized Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in a recently circulated video. Bonet, speaking with visible anger, accused Obi of betraying the trust of his supporters.
In the viral clip, Bonet declared, “We believed in you but we will never vote you again. Seeing you with Nasir El-Rufai, you have insulted us.”
His statement underscores growing frustration among some former Obi loyalists who feel disillusioned by his political choices. For Bonet, the issue goes beyond ordinary political alliances—it represents what he described as a disregard for the sacrifices of Nigerians who rallied behind Obi during the 2023 elections.
This attack is the latest in a series of confrontational remarks from Bonet. In previous videos, he had targeted his former principal, El-Rufai, accusing him of disrespecting respected political and religious figures. Now, by shifting his focus to Obi, Bonet highlights the lingering mistrust surrounding El-Rufai’s political reputation.
Observers believe Bonet’s comments reflect a broader unease among sections of Obi’s base, who worry that partnerships with divisive figures could undermine the image of transparency and reform Obi built during his campaign. The phrase “you have insulted us,” directed at Obi, underscores just how personal this discontent feels for some of his supporters.
With the 2027 general elections on the horizon, the outburst raises questions about whether Obi can maintain the loyalty of his grassroots following while navigating Nigeria’s complex political landscape.
