Why Nigerians are flocking to Peter Obi
Why Nigerians are flocking to Peter Obi
The burning desire by Nigerians to see a turnaround in the country underscores the reason why Nigerians are flocking to Peter Obi and the Labour Party.
Across the civilized world, progress is made when there is rapport and understanding between the people and their leaders. There can be no progress when the leaders and the people are heading in opposite direction. Buhari’s anti-corruption war has not brought any respite. Rather than see progress, corruption and sleaze have become the order of the day.
And beyond that, insecurity has overwhelmed the country. Nowhere is safe. There is a daily bloodbath. Terrorists including Boko Haram, bandits, kidnappers, and ritual killers are on the loose with no control. Some parts of the country are virtually under the control of criminals. There has never been a situation like this in the country before, not even during the Biafra war.
On the economic front, all the nuts are loose. Mass unemployment, high cost of living, abject poverty, and despair, among other outrageous problems pervade the land. Virtually, all the economic indices are in the negative. The horizon appears bleak and frightening, except there is a deliberate intervention to right the wrongs.
The craze for a new Nigeria informed the rush to Peter Obi and his Labour Party. Nigerians are disenchanted with the ruling APC and the opposition PDP that have jointly ruled Nigeria for nearly 24 years, precisely since 1999 and ran it aground.
The track record of the three key presidential contestants – Atiku Abubakar of the PDP, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu of the APC and Peter Obi of the Labour Party speaks for them. Nigerians know who is who. As such, no amount of shenanigan will divert the mind of Nigerians who are focused on redeeming the country from total collaspse
