The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has called on Nigerians to join hands together and rescue the country by ensuring credible leaders are elected come 2023.
While addressing the crowd of congregants at the Mater Dei Catholic Cathedral in Umuahia, Obi urged them to always verify every record presented to them, saying it’s time to fix the country.
He stressed that leaders must be held accountable for public funds spent as such funds are meant for the entire people and must not be spent on the whims of the leadership.
The Labour Party presidential candidate also called on the congregants to continue praying for the country.
He said,
“If we don’t do the right thing there will be anarchy and anarchy will consume all of us, whether you are a governor, whether you are a bishop…
“We must fix this place now. It is unacceptable that we are living in a country with all the facilities God gave us for free and millions of people do not know where the next meal will come from. That is unacceptable.
“What we need is the government’s support to export things so that we can make a living. We have to stop being a consuming nation.”
