VIDEO: ‘Four Years And Not A Day More,’Obi Insists On Single-Term Presidency

The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, insists he won’t spend more than four years if elected in 2027. 

Obi, a former presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 election, dismissed claims that he is promising a single-term presidency just to get to power. 

Responding to comments by his running mate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, that there was an agreement for the former governor to serve for four years if elected as president, Obi told Seun Okinbaloye in an exclusive interview on Sunday Politics that it was an “agreement”. 

He said that as “gentlemen, we must respect” the deal and insisted that “I don’t need more than four years to show the path Nigeria will take.” It’s a simple thing.”

“And I say it again: I will serve for four years — full stop. If you want me, it’s four years, full stop — not a day more,” he said.
