Former governor of Anambra State and presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in the 2023 general election, Mr Peter Obi has protested the level of hardship faced by the poor in Nigeria.


Obi lamented the travails of low income earners and the exorbitant sums charged by POS operators to Nigerians seeking to access cash.

The former governor spoke during a visit to the Archbishop Province on the Niger and Bishop of Awka Diocese of Church of Nigeria Anglican Communion, His Grace Alexander Ibezim.


He said: “The hardship in Nigeria is too much, how can the ordinary people survive. The woman who sells pepper by the road side has to pay huge charges to get her own money. How much is her profit margin and how much will remain after paying charges?

“No country is run like that. Don’t bother to interview me on that, I will write officially to the President on this and state all these things.

“These (POS Charges) is too much, no country is run like this,” Obi told journalists who approached him to speak on the matter.

He has left fuel, now it is POS that is his problem. How many Nigerians are even complying with the POS of a thing.

Peter Obi is becoming desperate, unlike a leader.

To solve this POS is very easy

Fine banks 5000 per day to be credited to customer if ATM us unable to dispense cash

Simple... If you go to the bank and ATM refuse to pay you because of no money or lack of network you get 5000

Watch how everything would normalize

The problem with Nigeria is lack of consequences for bad actions
