The North Will Celebrate My Presidency – Peter Obi

Peter Obi, 2027 presidential aspirant and former Labour Party candidate in the 2023 general election, has stated that the northern region of Nigeria will celebrate him if he is elected president.
Obi, a key figure in the newly formed opposition coalition under the platform of the African Democratic Congress, ADC, made the remark while appearing as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics programme.
According to him, the northern region holds the greatest untapped potential in Nigeria, comprising 19 states with vast arable land and significant voter strength. However, he noted that these advantages have long been undermined by persistent insecurity.
Obi said, “We have voted for incompetence, we’ve voted for tribe, (and) we’ve voted for religion; let’s vote for competence.
“I want them to trust me. The biggest asset of this country is in the north, the uncultivated lands in the north. The criminality we face in the north today, I will deal with it.
“If I am president, the North will celebrate me. I have an idea of the problem.”
