He claimed, his candidate, Tinubu has more decision making experience and competence in handling the affairs of an office as high as that of the president of Nigeria. He added that Atiku lacks the necessary leadership experience as he has never been a full leader such as president or governor only as a vice president in which case he knows nothing about decision making which is the core of what it takes to be the president.

In response to this, Reno Omokri, a PDP spokespersons countered Festus saying that he speaks out of ignorance as Atiku was the chief decision maker when then president traveled out of the country in 2003 hence claiming he has enough leadership and decision making experience and competency.
