His Excellency, Peter Gregory Obi, the leading presidential candidate in the forthcoming General elections in Nigeria is one of the most engaging and engaged presidential candidate both locally and internationally.
Earlier this morning, media representatives of CNN, Al Jazeera and Economist news crew in Abuja engaged Peter Obi to an interview where he as usual reeled out issue based ideologies on how to tackle Nigeria’s problems once he emerges as the President of Nigeria after February elections.
Below are few of what he said..
This is a David and Goliath fight, there is grace of God; and I’m with the youths of Nigeria. We pray that God answers their prayer through me.
We will build a society that is premised on the rule of law as we strive to secure and unite Nigeria. Insecurity is part of a failure of leadership. Dealing decisively with insecurity will stop the drift.

Our democracy is not at risk; but we need free, fair and credible elections. The president and INEC have promised such.
If Nigeria is turned around; it will impact on West Africa and Africa as a whole.
The bulk of SMEs will be driven by youths as a means of tackling youth unemployment. Our 4th industrial revolution will hinge on youth involvement.
We must tackle food insecurity and weak currency to turn the country around; we must cut cost of governance and fight corruption simultaneously.
Nigeria is important to the world, and the international community look forward to a proactive Nigeria. A stable Nigeria will ensure youths don’t seek to emigrate. Good governance offers stability and safe environment. -PO
