The Presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, Peter Obi, has called on political leaders and Nigerians to unite in the collective effort to rescue the country from poverty, hunger and insecurity ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
Obi made the call while attending the commissioning of the 2027 presidential campaign office of the Oyo State Governor and presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement, Seyi Makinde, in Abuja on Monday.
The former Anambra State governor also said Makinde is qualified to contest for the presidency, stressing that whoever emerges victorious in a credible election should be supported by all Nigerians to build a better country.
He stated, “What we are doing today is to show you that, for us, we don’t have desperation. We want the people of Nigeria to make their choice. Whoever they choose, all of us will come together to build a new Nigeria.
