Peter Obi thanks Nigerians For Show Of Solidarity Over Benin Shooting Incident by nairalandkachy1(op): 12:33pm On Feb 25
Thank You, Nigerians

I am profoundly grateful to Nigerians from around the world for your prayers, calls, and solidarity following the incident at the ADC office in Benin yesterday. I especially appreciate your support during this difficult time for the family of the distinguished elder and former Governor of Edo State, Chief John Oyegun, who has served Nigeria honourably in various capacities, as well as for another former Governor, Professor Oserheimen Osunbor. Your support has strengthened my faith in our shared humanity and our collective hope for a better Nigeria. My deep gratitude is reflected in my renewed commitment to serve and build our nation.

Experiences of lawlessness are not new to me. Years ago, the violence and insecurity in Anambra shaped my determination to seek the Governorship of the state, convinced that leadership must restore order, security, and public trust. Today, the growing lawlessness across our country calls upon all men and women of goodwill to step forward—not in fear but with a sense of responsibility. As Plato reminded us, the price good people pay for refusing to participate in government is to live under the rule of bad people.

This moment urges Nigerians to be even more resolute in electing leaders defined by competence, commitment, character, and compassion—leaders who prioritise the nation above self and service above power.

Together, with courage and unity, we can build the peaceful, secure, and prosperous Nigeria our people deserve.

A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO

APC did a very terrible job. Those that monitor his movements like Hawks are the people that leaked his presence and coordinated the attack.

This Indicted APC totally....that is why Yarimo and crew members wanted to desperately change the narrative.

Awon.. suffersticated failures shouting MANDATE without an idea how to feed tomorrow cool

Peter Obi is a l1ar and he’s just deceiving his band of Obidients.

Two old men John Oyegun (87 years) and Roland Owie (81) are fighting for ADV leadership. They no see young people to use as Edo leader, na old people them gather.

The other man sent his thugs to break the Hedd of the other faction and Obi was caught in the middle. Then he went on TV to l1e that they wan Assnate him.

If truly governor wan do am, how Obi take think say he go escape 😂

Why will you write this knowing what everyone knows about SARS in Anambra when you were governor? Why?

Not everyone of us has selective amnesia.

Even in his own local government, he will wipe face on the floor

I wonder how some Nigerians wake up after seeing all the falsehood of politicians and start believing that PETER is the one that is holy and worthy of our votes.

Nigerians will never learn.
