Presidential Candidate of Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has declared that he must be president of Nigeria.

Obi, who came third in the 2023 presidential election, said this at the presentation of a book entitled: “Peter Obi: Many voices, one Perspectives”, in Awka, Anambra State capital, on Friday.



The book presentation was designed to raise fund to enable Mr Peter Obi pursue his ongoing election court case.

“Anyone who thinks I’m on transit is wasting his time. Let me tell you, I must be the president of this country. I’m sure of that. If it is not today, it must be tomorrow.”

LP faction backs Tinubu’s swearing in, accuses Obi of making illegal request

Presidential tribunal: Obi, others agree on processes

“Other people who want to be, should come and tell us what they want to do, and how to do it. This is my country, I don’t have dual citizenship. If anyone thinks I am going to run away from Nigeria, they are lying.

“I have three engagements in Anambra and Lagos today. I will be speaking in Lagos tonight. We will not leave Nigeria. I am not in a hurry to become the president, but I know it must happen.

“For three years I was in court in Anambra to
reclaim my governorship, just to challenge the process. Many people tried to discourage me, but I said even if the entire four years tenure elapsed for us to prove a point and correct the process, I will be fulfilled.

“I was in an event yesterday in Abuja, and it was World Food Organisation. I listened to report that stated that Nigeria will face intense hunger in years to come.

“It is Nigeria that will face hunger, not Peter Obi. The report listed Borno, Adamawa and Yobe as the states that will be worse hit, but those three states put together are five times larger in land mass of Israel, yet Egypt exports food, but Nigeria cannot feed itself.

“So we must cultivate a habit of doing the right thing. If we don’t do the right thing, it will consume us some day.”

“I must be the president of this country; if not today, it will be next time. I’m not desperate; I’m not in a hurry. I’m committed to cause of better Nigeria,” he said.

Obi also said he would respect the decision of the court in the ongoing electoral dispute.

“We are peaceful, we are not going to quarrel with any politician. Don’t be discourage about my apologies to people. As youth, we cannot fight our fathers, even when we are right.”

“We are not going to riot . I am in Nigeria; I don’t not have dual citizenship; I will not run away; we must be here to right the wrong in the country,” he stated.

Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Afred Achebe, Catholic bishop of Awka diocese, Most Rev. Paulinus Ezeokafor, were among dignitaries at the event.

Hmm.
Oya all the youths, let's gather here and start insulting ourselves for these politicians, cos that's the only thing we are cursed to do.

It's obvious there's already no chance for us in leading Nigerian cos these people are not ready to relinquish power to us and we are not ready to fight for power

Obi emancipate south east first, charity begins from home. Develop southeast so your youths turn away from ipob terrorism and travelling up and down like refugees to survive.

We don't recognize that other greedy old power drunk man. He is just deceiving himself enforcing himself on us. He is not our president

mumu talk,let Tinubu emancipate southwest fst before becoming president

President of biafra you mean or president of Ipob?. You are sleeping and dreaming on running bicycle. Who knows Gregory Obi in the northern state or south west? Or are you talk8ng about your manhood that you are looking in the court of law. If na dream, I beg go and sleep back, it can never work in this country except in Biafra land

This is sounding more like desperation than a true willingness to serve

Emancipate SW from what?
Do not say poverty cause the least poor region and the region with the least employment rate is the SW, thats according to NBS

Also, the SW is the region with most manufacturing and production firm
The region is also free of Terrorism

So BAT should emancipate them from what exactly?

APC are making Obi more popular than obidients. This one that created this trashy thread was in the other thread begging for urgent 2k sef

“Must” depicts desperation.

A desperate man struggling for breath.

We Nigerians (the elders and the youth) have chosen Tinubu .
