The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has said that there will be no more fake promises to Nigerians ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Obi made this statement in a post on his verified X handle on Tuesday, a day after paying a courtesy call on the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar.
Speaking on the Town Hall with the people of Sokoto, Obi said they had a very impressive engagement.
According to him, it was an opportunity to listen, answer questions, and speak honestly about the Nigeria he and his running mate, Rabi’u Kwankwaso want to build together.
He stated that the work ahead is enormous, but with courage, competence, compassion, character, and the collective determination of Nigerians, they could begin to change the story.
“Our message was equally clear: there will be no fake promises. We must unite the country and confront insecurity decisively, while also addressing human insecurity. We must fight poverty, unemployment, hunger, and hopelessness if we are to reduce criminality and create a safer society.
“We discussed money politics and its devastating consequences. When poverty becomes the instrument through which politicians buy votes, citizens are trapped in a cycle where the same system that impoverishes them is repeatedly rewarded. We must break this cycle of bad leadership driven by transactional politics,” he wrote.
