2023: Peter Obi makes another huge promise, says he’ll build a Nigeria where child of nobody can be president

Insisting that the “job is a job for people with physi­cal and mental energy, not a retirement home,” the LP presidential candidate re­vealed that he is in the race with his running mate, Dat­ti Baba-Ahmed, because they are “committed to building a new Nigeria as it is possible.

“Hold us responsible, we are prepared for the job. Somebody asked me today, with all these monies they have stolen, how would you transform Nigeria, and I said, I have turned around failed businesses. Nigeria is a failed country, give it to us, we will turn it around. We want Nigerians to hold us responsible for turning around this country.

“I am not looking for anything. I have been a governor for eight years, I didn’t owe salary, or gra­tuity or pension, but I left $150 million and N30 bil­lion.

“Go to Anambra State, if you see one piece of land allocated to Peter Obi, the wife or anybody close to me, I will stop running. Next year’s election is based on the character we can trust,” he reiterated.

On his part, Labour Par­ty’s (LP) National Chair­man, Julius Abure, told the crowd that “2023 is the time to recover our country from those who have put us in poverty, in hunger and unemployment. Therefore, the choice we must make in 2023 is the Labour Party and Peter Obi.

“There is no doubt why we have been suffering be­cause we have been voting for the wrong people. It is now time for us to vote for the right people who will re­cover this country again”.
