Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP in 2023, Peter Obi, on Monday stated that democracy in Nigeria is suffering and has been turned to transitional politics.
Obi, who spoke in Akure, Ondo State, for a rally to support the governorship candidate of the party during the upcoming Saturday election, emphasised that everyone must be involved in the rebuilding process of the country.
He appealed to the electorate in the state not to trade their votes and conscience for any form of inducement.
“We know democracy is suffering in Nigeria; we know they’ve turned democracy into transitional politics but we still insist that we continue to campaign and tell Nigerians that this is time to start building a new Nigeria.
“A Nigeria where a child of nobody is somebody, a Nigeria where there will be equal opportunity, a Nigeria where we put people out of poverty, a Nigeria where our children will be in school, where our hospitals will work.
The governorship candidate of the party in the state, Sola Ebisen, described LP as the only party that can transform the state.
“Our programs and policies and even projects are everywhere, and you know it. Everywhere you go in Ondo State, all the projects you see are in the colour of the dress I am wearing. Our presidential candidate is here to give support and to let Nigerians know that the Labour Party is the party to vote for.”
