2027: I don’t need a hundred years – Peter Obi

Nigeria Democratic Congress presidential candidate Peter Obi has stated that he does not require a century to steer Nigeria in the correct direction. Reaffirming his decision to serve a single term as President, Obi expressed concern that the nation is on the wrong path. During an interview with Arise Television, the ex-Anambra State governor emphasized that he is not eager to be Nigeria's leader.

Obi remarked, "I will not remain in office a day longer; you don't need a hundred years to initiate a journey in the right direction. Nigeria is currently headed in the wrong direction, and I simply need to rectify it and propel it in the correct direction." He assured that in four years, Nigerians will witness the positive change he promises.

Obi highlighted Anambra State's transformation as evidence, noting that the state, once notorious for its shortcomings, became a beacon of progress within four years.
