Tuesday, June 10, 2025 - Peter Obi, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, has stated that none of the current presidential hopefuls share his unique background or experiences.
Speaking in an interview with Arise Television on Monday,
June 9, the former Governor of Anambra State emphasized his commitment to
building a better Nigeria, saying he possesses the necessary qualities and
experience to lead the country.
“Let me
assure you, I’m committed to a better Nigeria, and I have what it takes. I have
the experience of all those who want to be president today. Nobody has my
background. I built a business from the ground up in this country. I’ve worked
in the corporate world, and I’ve been a governor. I transformed one of the
smallest banks into a N25 billion institution,” he said.
Obi also highlighted his financial discipline while in
office, noting that he left the Anambra State Government with savings and
without any debt.
“I served as
governor and left office without owing anyone. I believe I saved more money
than any other governor. Since leaving office, I’ve not received any pension or
gratuity from the state. Not even a bottle of water has been given to me,” he
added.
To reinforce his point, Obi challenged authorities to
confiscate any piece of land allegedly allocated to him by the Anambra State
Government.
