Mr. Peter Obi the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,
presidential aspirant, said that he only needs four years to repair the country
if given the opportunity to become the president of Nigeria in 2023.
In his address to the stakeholders from Anambra Central in
Awka, Vanguard reports that, Obi said Nigeria at the moment, is unproductive
and therefore needed someone to move it from a consumption to a productive
nation.
“Nigeria must create jobs; it must give people the
opportunity to earn their livelihood; and it is not a rocket science.” He said.
He further said "I have travelled to over 30 countries
and I still say it that all I need is four years to position Nigeria to the
path of progress”.
"I would fix insecurity, bad economy, poor electric
power supply and ensure food security in the country within the shortest
possible time as president.”
“Who says we can’t enjoy steady power supply in this
country? Egypt, between 2016 and today, has doubled its power generation and
distribution from 28,000 megawatts to 58,000 megawatts. Vietnam has doubled its
own from 38 to 76. Obi Said.
“Let us give people conditions; if I am Mr President and if
we do not have 20,000 megawatts in three years, I’ll go home".
The stakeholders at the meeting said their support to Obi’s presidential
ambition is based on his impressive performance in the state while in office as
governor.
