The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Mr Peter Obi, has declared that the 2023 general election is very crucial to Nigeria’s overall recovery.
Obi said that Nigeria is highly blessed with both human and material resources, and only needs a conducive environment, which only good leadership can offer to bring about the country’s overall recovery from its present state of dismay.
Obi said this during a New year special church service at the Holy Ghost Adoration Ministry, Uke, Anambra State.
Obi also stated that the 2023 general election is important to Nigeria’s survival.
Take their destinies into their hands
The former Anambra state governor told his audience to take their destinies into their hands and avoid making the mistake of electing the wrong leaders.
According to Obi; “Nigeria is highly blessed, but needs good leadership to recover from its present state of dismay. The recovery, however, will be determined by the outcome of the 2023 general election. That is to say that our destiny is in our hands.
“Power belongs to God, and he gives it to whoever He likes. So, Nigerians must pray fervently that God will bless the country with a president that will facilitate this recovery – a president that will use the wealth of the nation to work for the people.
“Nigeria is sinking; youths are leaving the country in droves in search of greener pastures because of bad economy; whereas Nigeria is high blessed with abundant resources. So, we’re praying to have a president that will turn the country and its economy around.”
Obi, who attended the Church Service in the company of the Anambra Central Senatorial candidate of the party, Senator Victor Umeh, told his audience to take their destinies into their hands and to be cautious of recruiting a Chief Executive, who would lead the country into destruction.
The Spiritual Director of the Holy Ghost Adoration Ministry, Uke, Reverend Father Emmanuel Obimma, in his New Year message, encouraged Nigerians not to be perturbed by the country’s battered economy.
The Cleric popularly known as Fr. Ebube Muonso, urged Nigerian youths, women and all people of goodwill to get their PVCs and vote in the direction that will restore hope to the country.
