Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, has advised Nigerians that it is time to decide who to vote for with only 12 days remaining until the election.
In tweets on Monday morning, Obi stated that those who were undecided should act now to select a leader and not waste the opportunity.
The LP candidate stated, “Those of us born after independence must now be given the opportunity to reshape the destiny of this nation,” adding that the “elders” have failed us.
“With 12 days remaining, we are in the final stretch. I have a message for Nigerians, particularly those who are undecided: Time for a decision!
“Every nation experiences significant junctures in its history when a circumstance necessitates that nation to take particular actions that would mark her turning point. Nigeria is at a turning point in history: “How we have performed as a nation is no longer in debate.” We have failed because of poor leadership. Now is the time to seize the moment. Nigeria must be saved immediately or else.
“In twelve days, we will be asked to make very difficult choices. It won’t be about clan or religion; My turn will not be about conventional feelings. It will concern national security.
According to the former governor of Anambra State, Nigeria needs leaders who will take full responsibility for safeguarding the lives and property of its citizens and leading the country toward national rebirth.
We have placed our bets on Nigeria, her future, and our children’s. That has to end. We must reevaluate the lessons we’ve learned and missed opportunities. Now, Nigeria needs a leader with vision and the ability to change things, someone who can lead the country toward national rebirth.
What kind of leader is Nigeria in need of right now? To safeguard the well-being, wealth, and lives of Nigerians, we require leaders who are willing to shoulder all of the burden. Datti and I both stand for that.
Banditry, kidnapping, clashes between farmers and herders, millions of street children, hunger, unemployment, and poverty are not our fault. It cannot be so.
A new kind of leader is needed at this time. Our strategy and vision have been laid out. We are requesting that Nigerians give us the authority to carry them out. We are at a turning point in our nation’s history. We cannot waste this opportunity. He stated, “We must seize the opportunity.”
