“The desire to take Nigeria back is nearly unanimous. We may be used to the old order; but we cannot vote for continuity of corruption, recklessness, impunity and poverty.
“Deprivation is not habit forming. Nigerians desire a better life,” the LP candidate said.
According to him, Nigeria must work for every citizen and not a select few.
Obi said it was the first duty of government to secure the lives and property of the citizenry and promised to prioritise this if elected in 2023.
He said, “There is Nigeria; But there are no Nigerians. Currently, Nigeria works for a small minority of people; Nigeria must work for ALL Nigerians. Nigerians must be able to dwell securely and in safety wherever they live. This is the first duty of government. This makes security a top priority for me.
“We can no longer gamble with our fate and future. I’m running for president because, I am qualified, I have the capacity, credibility, commitment, stamina, governance experience, and track record.
“More importantly, Nigerians can trust me.”
