The Vice Presidential candidate of Labour Party, LP, Senator Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed has rubbished claims credited to Atiku Abubakar’s running mate, Ifeanyi Okowa.
Okowa had in an interview with BBC pidgin, accused the former Governor of Anambra, Peter Obi, of lacking enough experience to rule Nigeria.
The PDP vice presidential candidate said that Obi’s experience is small compared to the problems bedevilling the country.

“His (Obi) previous experience is not enough for this one, it will be hard. His experience is not deep enough,” Okowa was quoted to have said during the interview.
In a counter attack, Baba-Ahmed who appeared on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Monday, faulted Okowa’s claim, while asking the Delta governor to present anyone that has more experience than his principal, Peter Obi.
“It’s untrue that Obi does not have enough experience. He is more experienced than any of the contestants.
“Show me anyone who has more experience than Peter Obi. None of them have as much as Peter Obi has,” Baba-Ahmed opined.
