The Labour Party presidential candidate for the 2023 election, Peter Obi, is in the eye of the storm with several allegations levied against him by the opposition.

Recently, Adams Oshiomhole, a chieftain of the ruling All Progressive Congress accused Peter Obi of failing to tackle insecurity as Governor of Anambra from 2006-2014.

Addressing an audience at the All Progressives Congress’ Youth Forum in Abuja, Oshiomhole questioned how Obi intends to fix Nigeria’s security challenges when he couldn’t fix Anambra’s.

“Who was the governor when Bakassi developed in Anambra State? Who solved the problem? If a man could not fix the security challenges in Anambra State, which requires courage, how can he convince you that he will fix security all over Nigeria?

“So, when he (Obi) says, ‘I will fix Nigeria,’ ask him, have you fixed your state?” Oshiomhole was quoted as saying.

Verification

In its attempt to confirm the validity of the statement credited to the Edo former governor, Quest Times conducted a fact-check on Anambra’s security situation under Peter Obi’s watch.

Quest Times findings indicated Anambra under Peter Obi’s watch was the safest in Nigeria.

According to a media report published April 11, 2011, by TheNation, Anambra was named “the safest State in Nigeria” following a police report.

“The Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Abubakar Mohammed, yesterday (Thursday, April 10, 2011) declared that Anambra State remained the safest state in the last five years, according to police records.

“Abubakar, who was speaking at the Women Development Centre, Awka, at the State’s Stakeholders’ Summit announced that there was no bank robbery in the State in the last five years during former Governor Peter Obi.

“He urged Governor Willie Obiano to emulate his predecessor by sustaining the security situation in the State.

“The inspector-general hailed the relationship between the police and the government under Peter Obi, which contributed to the improved security, and reassured Governor Obiano that the police would give him a 100 percent support to rid the state of kidnappers and robbers,” TheNation reported.

Conclusion

It is true Anambra under Peter Obi’s watch was the safest in Nigeria.

If federal govt could hold a single man under detention for months, then Peter obi is just a free man. I see no reason to compare his Anambra security structure under current regime.

Peter Obi is an exceptional human being. I can’t even believe a man like him joined Nigeria politics Nobody have ever inspired me more than Peter Obi. He took Labor party from obscurity to national limelight within six months and never spent shishi, or government funds or donation, something no Nigerian living or dead had ever done! I sometimes go back to his speeches and play it most of the time. I have his potriat in my house. The man is a genius and would have made a big change in this 6 months the incompetent mandate thief is wandering around like a lost baby…a new Nigeria is possible with Peter Obi
