Peter Obi, the presidential candidate for the Labour Party, emphasized the need for a leader who can put a stop to waste and work towards rebuilding a new Nigeria that citizens can be loyal to.
He stated that the only accusation against him is that he is stingy, but argued that Nigeria needs a leader with a culture of saving.
Obi also mentioned that the “Obidient” movement is not tied to any specific political party, but instead represents a group of people from various backgrounds who aim to build a new Nigeria.
He also led a moment of silence for PDP members who died in a road accident while returning from a campaign rally.
Leading the crowd in a one-minute silence for the PDP members that died in the auto crash, Obi stated that even though those who died in the auto mishap were not the LP members, “the life of every Nigerian is important, adding that the party suspended campaign in Plateau State for some days to mourn the dead.”
Obi emphasized his commitment to protecting and unifying Nigeria, creating jobs, and moving the country from consumption to production.
He also emphasized that the upcoming election is about character, and stated that he and his running mate have not stolen any public funds.
