  "account": "The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, Mr. Peter Obi, urged President Bola Tinubu to tour Nigeria and provide an account of his administration's achievements before seeking re-election in 2027. Obi made the call during the Obi-Kwankwaso Town Hall Meeting in Enugu, attended by the party’s vice-presidential candidate, Rabiu Kwankwaso. He emphasized that Nigerians deserved to know what the president had accomplished with the funds borrowed and the revenue generated during his tenure. \"Let other candidates move around and tell Nigerians what they will do for them. Your president said he will not campaign across Nigeria. He must come and campaign and tell the people what he has to offer,\" Obi stated. He went on to highlight the challenges facing Nigeria, including hunger, unemployment, and insecurity, and urged the country to need a leader committed to addressing these issues. Obi added that his administration, if elected in 2027, would prioritize national unity, security, employment, healthcare, and accountability in the management of public funds. Pat Utomi, a former presidential adviser, expressed optimism that genuine change could make Nigeria one of the best places to live and called for a massive turnout of voters to defend their votes. Victor Umeh, a senator representing Anambra Central, praised Obi and Kwankwaso as leaders ready to serve the country and urged supporters to mobilize for the upcoming election. He also commended Kwankwaso for his role in strengthening the party’s support in northern Nigeria and expressed confidence in the ticket’s appeal across the country.",
