An Igbo apex group, Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide, Sunday, called on Nigerians, especially the North to vote for Mr. Peter Obi of the Labor party (LP), in the February 25, 2023, general elections.
The group in a statement by its Secretary-General, Okechukwu Isiguzoro said that Obi will save the country from corrupt politicians.
Isiguzoro further called for a United Nigeria that will join forces to deliver the country through their vote for Peter Obi.
The statement reads, “Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide has reached out to well-meaning Nigerians and the North to unite together for the greater future of the country by voting for the Labour Party Presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, as the President on 25th February 2023.
“There is an ongoing battle between the corrupt elites and President Buhari, as there are attempts to bend the President to accept the elites covetousness and allow a particular unpopular candidate to win the 2023 Presidential election”.
“The North should know that it’s only Peter Obi who will salvage the myriad of problems in the North and resuscitate the dwindling fortunes of the North.
Those who are aged, without the stamina will not be able to do the work rather than helping the north, they will aggravate and worsen the situation.
” Northerners should shun ethnicity and religion cards and choose competence, capacity, and character in the bid to end up insecurity and banditry in the North, we are begging the Northerners to choose Peter Obi ahead of Atiku and Tinubu to save the country from the total collapse”.
“Nigerians should vote and protect their votes across the country, we must end up the era of corruption, executive stealing, and insecurity by voting for the best man for the Job.
“This is the battle for the survival of the soul of Nigeria, and Nigerians must ensure that they hold President Buhari and INEC not to succumb to the pressures of the corrupt political elites uniting across party lines to fight for their political survival against a political tsunami that is about to sweep them off from relevance.
“Nobody should deny Mr. Peter Obi the Presidency if he wins, because attempts to subvert the will of Nigerians and denying Peter Obi his victory if he wins will spell doom for the country “.
