Following seven years of anemic economic growth, Nigerians face restricted employment possibilities, stagnating incomes, a shrinking middle class, and bleak economic prospects for our youths.

A recent study found that young adults are more likely than ever to live with their parents. There is currently no employment for the people, universities are on lockdown, and doctors are getting ready to strike, with numerous affiliated unions declaring their desire to go on indefinite strike as well.

The situation has gotten worse so far this year, the naira is trading at above 700 naira to the dollar, and road travel is no longer an option for Nigerians due to their ostensible dread of kidnappers and criminals. The DSS and Army are constantly sending circulars about the worry of an approaching attack and what civilians should do as a preventative step. A single AIR trip from Benin to Abuja is 90 thousand Naira.

According to statistics, more than 70% of Nigerians spend all of their money on food alone. The health care system is all but dead, and the high cost of pharmaceuticals and other prescription treatments makes it seem like the nation is slipping away quickly.

In Adamawa State, the unthinkable occurred a few days ago when hundreds of residents openly burned their membership cards to the PDP, APC, and NNPP in favor of the LP, declaring their unwavering support for Peter Obi and Datti Ahmed Yusuf.

Students in Osun donated money to create a large signboard of Peter Obi in the state a few days ago. A journey to Port Harcourt revealed a shocking conclusion about Nigerians being obedient. Every dealer in the local marketplaces would ask their clients where their PVC was and they would respond, “Obidient and Yusulf,” indicating a cult-like following.

According to former Senate Minority Leader Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, it would be tough to campaign against the Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi. He said…

“The antecedents and swelling followership of the former Anambra State Governor has made his candidature the choice of many Nigerians’. Obi’s phenomenon has brought huge revolution in the country’s electoral system, and the emergence of Obi has re-awakened the interest of many Nigerians in the political process.”

He went on to say that many youths and Nigerians from various geopolitical zones who had lost interest in the political system have suddenly developed an interest in the 2023 elections.

Whoever wins this election will inherit Buhari’s weak economic development and a perilous security scenario. It has expanded the divide between the elite and lower classes, weakened the middle class, and ruined the economic prospects for which our country has long been known.

Nigerians regard Peter Obi as a vast improvement over the established aristocracy, which continues to eat fat on Nigerians’ collective patrimony. Nigerians are not foolish; they have resolved to reclaim their nation.

In this election cycle, Nigerians are saying enough is enough and that they must make clear choices again; they are outraged and are not interested in the current political establishment’s lies and hollow promises.

According to them a  vote for Peter Obi in simple terms signifies moving Nigeria forward for Nigerians, they insist Peter Obi winning this election  means a new dawn. It means Nigeria will be saved. The old order will be gone. Peter Obi will set a high pace of excellence and achievement for future presidents.

Nigerians now do not trust their government and are fearful of what lies ahead. They feel that with Obi in Aso Rock, there will be a government — and a leader — who serves the people.

Nigerians need a president who knows how economic freedom can lift people from poverty, open paths to and grow the middle class while offering everyone the opportunity to earn their success.
