Our current interest is Nigeria’s survival not 2027 elections – Peter Obi
The Labour Party torchbearer in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, has appealed to Nigerians from every class and political affiliation should be more concerned about how the citizens will survive the current economic hardship and not the next elections.
The former Anambra State Governor said this while addressing a mammoth crowd of supporters at the Labour Party National Secretariat in Abuja on Tuesday, May 21, 2024.
The supporters were on a solidarity visit organised by the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) chapter to the National Chairman of the party, Julius Abure.
Obi noted that some politicians were quick to turn focus to the election as soon as one electoral cycle ends neglecting a critical aspect which is the welfare and security of the citizens.
He said political parties’ existence is predicated on Nigeria’s existence as such it behoves every citizen to ensure the country’s survival.
“Nigeria is the only country we have,” Obi told the excited crowd.
