Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, on Saturday promised to solve Nigeria’s flood challenge and ensure the country attains sufficiency in food production if elected in 2023.

He spoke on Saturday at a rally in Lafia, the Nasarawa State capital at the commencement of his campaigns ahead of next February election.

The former Anambra State governor said his government will move Nigeria from consumption to production and job creation.

He promised to fix Nigeria’s power conundrum, amongst others, and wondered why the Super Eagles couldn’t qualify for Qatar 2022 World Cup starting next month.

After he observed a one-minute silence in honour of all flood victims across the country, Obi said, “I assure you if we come into power, we will solve this flooding problem.”

“We are not going to do it overnight but we will start solving it. It will not take 30 years. The Federal Government said it will take 30 years, it will not take 30 years for us to solve it.

“Let me assure you, the government Obi and Datti Baba-Ahmed will change Nigeria for good,” he said.

According to the National Emergency Management Agency, the 2022 floods devastatingly claimed over 600 lives in Nigeria and displaced millions of people who now seek refuge in Internally Displaced Persons’ camps scattered across the country.

Many farmlands have been washed away by the floods and experts have worried that the situation will affect food prices.



‘Nigeria Can Feed Itself’


On Saturday, 61-year-old Obi, who promised to support farmers and youths in the country, added that Nigeria can feed itself if the right measures are taken.

“If we come into government, I assure you, farmers will go back to farms because we are going to deal with insecurity, we will support youths; the more youths are pulled out of poverty, the more we reduce criminality.

“We will support youths because today Nigerian youths don’t have a home. When we come into government, the youths will have homes because we will solve their problems.”

“Today in Nigeria, people spend all their money to feed themselves. So many people can’t even feed themselves. We will make sure that we start the journey of Nigeria being sufficient in food production. If Israel can feed itself, Nigeria can feed itself. If India can feed itself, Nigeria can feed itself,” he said.

Also at the rally include Obi’s running mate, Datti Baba-Ahmed; Labour Party’s National Chairman, Julius Abure; the party’s Director General of the National Campaign Council, Doyin Okupe, amongst others.

Dr Peter Obi's Government Will Take Preventive Measures To Reduce The Flood Damages From Different Communities In Nigeria
Because He's The Only Competent And Patriotic Candidate Who Has The Capacity To Install Road Drainage Systems And Underground Gutter Drainage To Alleviate Flooding And Protect The Surface Of The Roads In Nigeria And Also Provide Adequate Amenities And Develop Good Road Infrastructures And Make Our Environment Conducive To Live And Work !
Dr Peter Obi Is The Only Candidate Who Has The Interest Of All Nigerians In His Lovely Heart��

We believe you our incoming president

We know that he has the capacity to do this, we only need to cote for him and most of the problems in Nigeria will slowly reduce.

As far as I'm concerned, he is the first to invite the Candidates and even the government for positive action towards salvaging affected areas against the floods, however, giving him the chance depends on Nigerians.
Indeed, no one knows who the cap fits.

Is a Shame that the structure that Apc and pdp are talking about is intimidating people, denying other candidates venues of rally etc.. knowing fully well that today is labour party election kickoff day, am ashamed of Nasarawa government.. for God sake those are your people, even if they are not going to vote your preferred candidate as Governor, protecting them should still be your number one priority.. God will see us through.. by the grace of God Nigeria will be where it supposed to be in the hands of Peter Obi and Ahmed Datti.. amen.

Urchins go show up now now nonsense
They don't have anything to campaign on. Their campaign strategy and manifesto na obidatti

Watch how APC and PDP would copy o

PO na Leader Abeg

Truth be told, the guy has reduced Tinubu+Atiku to nonentities.

When PO talks, you feel the presidential aura around him unlike the Agbado master that talks like an agboro boss or the Fulani man that wants to replace another Fulani President that talks only about north shouldn't vote for Igbos and Yoruba's.
