Peter Obi, the former governor of Anambra State, has warned Nigerians to scrutinise politicians before supporting their political dreams ahead of the 2023 presidential election.

Obi advised Nigerians to vote for a president who is focused on the job rather than the title.

On Sunday, March 20, 2022, the former governor announced this in Minna while seeking support for his presidential bid.

Obi, who described Nigeria as a country in crisis, claimed that everyone, including the wealthy, is suffering in the country.

He said, “The issues facing this country at the moment are enormous, is it the insecurity, fuel scarcity? We must ensure to support a President who is not only after the title but a productive Nigerian.

“Everybody is suffering in Nigeria irrespective of whether you are a big man or not. We are in a crisis situation because you can’t even travel by road to some parts of the country. The cost of diesel, food, everything is going up and we can’t bequeath Nigeria to our children the way it is like this,” he said.

“Nigeria is more important than all of us, we must build a better Nigeria for our children and we can’t build that when majority of the people are poor.

“Nigerians should begin to ask politicians fundamental questions to avoid failures recorded in the past.

“If people come around you to tell you they want a particular political position, ask them what they want to do for the country. Ask them some fundamental questions”.

Obi asked Nigerians to question anyone who approaches them to ask for their support for a political cause.

He went on to say that politicians don’t take campaign promises seriously since Nigerians don’t challenge them about their previous promises before giving them another chance.
