Why I Accepted To Be Peter Obi’s Running Mate –Datti, Labour Party’s Vice-Presidential Candidate

The vice-presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Senator Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed says the only reason why he accepted to be the running mate of the party’s presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi is to rescue Nigeria.

Baba-Ahmed, a 46-year-old academic, businessman and politician stated this in his acceptance speech, shortly after he was unveiled as the LP vice-presidential candidate in Abuja.

He said he believes in the genuineness, integrity and capacity of Obi to rescue Nigeria and he had no choice but to be part of the movement to rescue the country.

Baba-Ahmed, who praised the Almighty Allah for making it possible, thanked Labour Party presidential candidate and his team for finding him worthy to be his running mate in their journey to rescue Nigeria.

"I wish to begin by uploading my endless praises to Almighty Allah who gives power to whom he wills, when he wills and how he wills.

"Also, I will remain ever submissive and indebted to my leader and my principal, the President (Peter Obi) and his team who worked diligently, researched and found me worthy. I will remain forever humble and appreciate him for this honour. My task is simple to accept this nomination at this time, but in doing so, I will normally give justification as follows:

"The undeniable, unchallengeable fundamental reason for being on this ticket is to rescue Nigeria. And the whole logically and without saying it that you can only rescue that which you are involved in for Nigeria to be able to transform. I cannot afford not to be part of this movement to rescue Nigeria.

"The second reason is that I believe in the greatness of Nigeria, I believe there will be peace and prosperity, I believe that Nigerian people will unite; in fact, let me say that having come from educational background; I belong to the system where you walk into the classroom, after one hour you come out a changed person.

"Ever since I met his Excellency Peter Obi, I have been changing every day,” he said.

He said Obi told him land mass in the North is the “crude oil of Nigeria”.

“How much more nationalist can you be? How much more detribalised can you be? I see a brighter future for Nigeria from such comments,” he said.

He continued, "Then I want to justify it, who was motivated by success in the private sector and fought ...and after those eight years, has maintained his integrity and honour till this day, is the one that will not fail in his campaign promises, Mr Peter Obi.

"Someone who believed in financial propriety will not engage in financial rascality. He who believes in credibility and integrity no matter who he associates with will not mismanage personal, human and public resources and he is Peter Obi.

"This is the high point in my life, in my career and I think this is pure. Having said this with all trust to Almighty Allah; with my belief that I am doing this for the sake of Nigeria, with all humility, I accept your generous invitation to be your running mate."

Nice looking young combination.

Nice looking young combination.

I tell you.

Square peg in square hole...Nigeria cannot have it any better than this combo,other nations will admire us. We move on!
We are now OBIdient and YUSful!

Let's Change from old people and allow this Young and brilliant Technocrats to try a single term.

If after Single term, them do werey.....we show them way back to Ananbra.

All tribe is experiencing currrent hardship of the Country. Let's do a away with Tribal and Religious wars. Let's save our future!

Not a bad choice in terms both qualifications and presence. However, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed is politically speaking, very lightweight both nationally and locally.

Looking dope, polished and elitist is good but Nigerian politics is akin to a fight in the jungle. I am not sure what his association with Northern youths has been to use them as his support-base and foot-soldiers. Can the 'Northern street' readily identify with him? Moreso, when that street is largely illiterate and helplessly gullible as the result of aloofness of young professionals like him.

Matter of fact, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed is not any different from the other Northern elites who in spite of their exposure and erudition just stay aloof, do their things and mind their businesses without doing anything socially to empower the young Northerners.

Nevertheless, if this is Peter Obi+Datti Baba Ahmed's time, things will fall in place on their own with little effort.

U accept because u are Obi-dient

This duo will go far.

His vice submitted....

He said Obi told him land mass in the North is the “crude oil of Nigeria”.

You can take this to the bank

"Someone who believed in financial propriety will not engage in financial rascality. He who believes in credibility and integrity no matter who he associates with will not mismanage personal, human and public resources and he is Peter Obi.

This is a pure truth! Which other candidates could be attested to be with such characters?
The other parties unfortunately have criminal records to their names as candidates.
Nigerians behold your president and vice... Choose wisely.

This thing just be like fantasy. God please make it happen.

Let us even know if things can get better when we decide to opt for something different from the norm or if there's no hope for the country atall.

We need to seriously understand that God has done what Gods must do and the rest is now in our very own hands.

NICE ONE. I like that part where he states that "part of the movement to rescue the country. OBI IS A MOVEMENT FOR A BETTERMENT OF NIGERIANS HOME & ABROAD

What is the Official Website of Labour Party because i perceived scammers developing websites to defraud the OBIdients

Who is a heavy weight politician in Nigeria if it's not criminals that have looted our collective resources. Where has that gotten us as a country?

You have your reasons quite alright but I can never vote for a chronic liar like Obi nor corrupt politicians like Tinubu or Atiku

Did Peter Obi loot collective resources to gain the support of SE?

Act well ooooo. Nigerians are expecting so much ooooo

No go betray the cause!

We meeeeve

Combination for the educated and brilliant Nigerians with no ethnic or tribal bias, but the poor, uneducated low class will not see the good in these guys because they are not educated and have their brains poisoned by the likes of old politicians with nothing to give the country apart from poverty and pains the likes of buhari,tinubu, Atiku and Co., the language they understand is to sell their votes for money, Peter obi and his vice have a lot of work to do to convince the low class voters in the society

budaatum:
Nice looking young combination.

A very good question indeed.

The only language the Nigerian youths understands is PETER OBI.

He was born in the early 70s, where did you and Sahara Reporters get this other date of birth ? His looks alone indicates that he is far older than someone born in the late 70s

Chai ome see how I dey get Goosebump

Mehn is been longer we heard of good news I hope it last.


And to the folks that want to remain in perpetual slavery because of peanuts I reckon you desists and join the moving train.

Stop hyping and promoting incompetent and greedy politicians because of your selfish gains. Remember posterity will judge oooo.

VOTE PETER OBI AMD DATTI BABA AHMED so that when Nigeria become great again we would all celebrate together.

Good for you man.

A better Nigeria all around is all we want.

Unfortunately, it is the sets of Barbaric, archaic, uncultured sets of species supporting you that will make you lose and come a distant 4th.
Anyone these things support is always a failure, not talking about how they are going along with their current campaign, threatening, petitioning, cursing, abusing whoever is not in their idiotic movement, they don't know anything about politics, just some hooligans shenanigans.

We like you a lot Datti, unfortunately for you,
You are with the wrong sets of unfortunate, uncultured tins, that abuse and curse their mothers online 24/7.

(If this gets to you, quote this post now , as we did not mention or quote any mongrels in our comment, anuofias dem. Una think say na only una papa get mouth to abuse sane people shey?
Una neva see chomtin, Nigerians will give you back in your own brutish coin.
Make una thank God say dis forum gets rules and regulations guiding..... ebi tins)
