2023: Sout-east Must Be Allowed To Rule, Says Peter Obi by West1side: 6:23am On Apr 12, 2022
The former Governor of Anambra State and presidential aspirant under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, Peter Obi, has appealed that the South-East region of the country should be allowed to produce the next President of the country.

Obi stated this during a meeting with the delegates and other leaders of the party at the PDP secretariat in Abeokuta, Ogun State. He noted that for the sake of equity, justice and respect, a President of Igbo extraction must be allowed to rule the nation.

The former governor while addressing the delegates and party leaders urged them not to allow money and sentiment to influence their voting at the primaries.

Obi, who was accompanied by a former media aide to former president Goodluck Jonathan, Dr. Doyin Okupe, declared that Nigeria is in crisis and he remained the best candidate to take Nigeria out of the doldrums.

He said, “Let me assure you that my commitment is to build a better Nigeria, my desperation is to see Nigeria better than it is today. We cannot continue the way Nigeria is today. What we want to say is that a nation must be built on fairness, must be built on equity, must be built on respect for each other and we in the South-East are saying we too should be allowed to serve and I assure you that that opportunity will change Nigeria.

He said, “Let me assure you that my commitment is to build a better Nigeria, my desperation is to see Nigeria better than it is today. We cannot continue the way Nigeria is today. "No country with 33 percent unemployment and 65 percent underemployment will survive. 60 percent of the unemployed and underemployed are among the youths, the most productive population of the country and at their young age are doing nothing.

“Today, ours is owing to people pension, they don’t pay people gratuity. Our schools are closed, our universities have been closed now and nobody is saying anything. There are 15 million out-of-school children, and the drug prevalence among our youths today is the highest in the world. We must change the situation

Time for Southeasterners and their allies to rally around their own towards more solidity and saner Nigeria. The governance of the federation of Nigeria without the Igbos is no doubt a huge lacuna that must be urgently filled before things escalate. Nigeria, with huge and diverse resources needs to grow into an admirable future not the other way round as it's being witnessed today. With God on our side this will be achieved in the next dispensation under competent hands. Suffering must not continue! So help us God!

Peter Obi as usual is still maneuvering & waiting for the PDP ticket to be laid at his door step.
People like Obi who is always sectoral and sectionally conscious can't be our President.

Seems like there's an unwritten decree to keep the Igbo man away from power. This can't go on forever. If Nigeria is truly ONE NIGERIA, then the Igbos should be given a chance.

Someone should tell Peter Obi Pandora that SE can only rule by winning election and not by insulting the north, abusing and blackmailing the SW, threatening secession, and burning government properties located in south east.

So you see, you cannot rule till you stop all the above and convince the rest of Nigeria to support Igbo presidency. Sadly, that can’t happen in 2023. It will take at least 16 years to correct the damage that had been done and rebuild confidence.

Peter Obi is the man to drag Nigeria out of the quagmire.

Futile attempts to dredge up baseless allegations via write-for-hire gutter platforms will naturally fall with a thud.

We are tired of nonsense.

Sincerely, I don't think anyone from the East will rule Nigeria anytime soon. Not in my generation.
Their approach to politics is terrible and worrisome.

You are not making sense.

Were the crimes and the nefarious activities you listed committed by Obi?

You people are so hopeless that every rational person should think twice before taking anything coming out from you seriously.

You were among those who facilitated the sale of Buhari to Nigeria with his avalanche of baggages...

Now that it is the turn of the Igbos, you are setting qualification standards for Peter Obi which angels will not be able to meet.

Peter Obi is coming to fix Nigeria. He will address the Nnamdi Kanu question once and for all.

Mr Obi,stop looking for who will give you presidency on a platter of gold.
Stop forming a victim here,everyone or zone has the right to contest,Nigerians has the right to decide who the winner will be.
Not like the south east have not been contesting ever since,even when the north and other part of South were emerging as winners.
Go through the right channel by winning your party ticket bearer first man.

See this one...

When the South West formed NADECO and other pressure groups to fight the government's of the days against perceived injustice over the annulment of June 12 elections, no-one came out to demonize them...

Now that the South East is insisting that equity and fairness should be upheld, people like you are coming out to create distracting noises.

Nigeria is not one will never be one, you can ask Kanu. The Igbos can go to hell over the unwritten decree or cast in stone decree.

Peter Obi Pandora is Igbo and he encouraged all the insults, abuse, threats, killings and burning. He was quick to condemn the train attack but kept silent about the Anambra LGA burning and other killings going on in SE. We cannot trust such a double standard bigot with presidential power.

On fixing Nigeria, kindly tell him to go back and fix Anambra first. He was a complete failure as governor. Till today, his supporters can’t point to his achievements and enduring legacies in the state. He was so bad as governor that even Anambra people have rejected his choice of successor for two straight election cycle.

If what he turned Anambra to is what you want him to turn the rest of Nigeria to, then we say a resounding NO.

Use Google to track Obi's achievements in government.
