Labour Party candidate in the 2023 presidential election Mr. Peter Obi, has dispelled any insinuations that the discussions going on for the formation of coalition against the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), includes a joint ticket with former Vice President Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.

Obi who admitted that he is involved in coalition talks with patriotic Nigerians but said it is because of his desire to rescue Nigeria from the bad governance.

"I have not joined any form of discussion on joint tickets including with Atiku,” he said while answering questions from supporters on X as gathered by ikemba News.

According to him, “If the coalition is not about stopping the killings in Benue, Zamfara, how to revive our economy, how to make our industries productive, how to put food on the tables of Nigerians… count me out. Nigeria is currently at war. We need to do something about it.”

Obi promised to bring stability in Nigeria within two years, if elected as president, adding, “Leaders of Nigeria should sit down in Nigeria and fix Nigeria.

We will do things differently in 2027. We will follow a non-violent approach and insist that the right thing will be done before the result announcement in Abuja.

Our votes in 2027 will count, and we will ensure they count.”

He expressed belief in rotational presidency between the North and the South, and said he implemented such rotation when he was governor of Anambra State.

If there is any form of agreement that will restrict me to four years in office, I will comply with the agreement and be ready to leave the office by 28th May, 2031,” Obi assured.

He listed three things that would define his presidency with the first 100 days in office to include security, education and poverty eradication, and said he would cut costs and shun corruption.

My family will not be involved in corruption. Funds to be channelled into key critical sectors.

My Presidency will ensure there is a strong opposition in party politics. There will be no defection of elected officials to other parties when I am in charge.

Imagine in this country, people are dying in Benue, Borno, (and other parts of the country), and our leaders are commissioning bus stops and holidaying.

My past speaks loudly for me. Wherever there was an issue in Anambra State, I was there physically. Anybody who wants to serve should be ready to put even their life on the line for the lives of Nigerians.

Nobody abroad takes you seriously if you don’t have a stable government,” Obi stated.

He described President Bola Tinubu’s visit to St. Lucia is a misplacement of priority, noting that in two years, Tinubu has not spent one night in any state in Nigeria apart from Lagos, “yet he is going to spend eight nights in St. Lucia, a place smaller than Ajegunle.

St Lucia is about the size of the 10th largest city of Nigeria, ilorin. President Tinubu has never slept a night in any state of Nigeria outside Lagos since the assumption of office in 2023. PBAT to stay in St Lucia for 10 days.”
