I’ll Run For President In 2027 But‘ll Spend One Term If Elected-Peter Obi

Former governor of Anambra State, Mr Peter Obi, who was the LP Presidential candidate in the 2023 presidential election, has disclosed plans to run for president in 2027.

Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Mr Peter Obi, who said this during a live session on X Spaces on Sunday night, has also promised to spend only one term if elected president in 2027.

Mr Ibrahim Umar of Peter Obi Media Reach, submitted in a statement on Monday that the former LP presidential candidate clarified and noted that he is not planning to stand as Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s running mate in the next presidential election.

 ‘If the coalition is not about stopping the killings in Benue, Zamfara, how to revive our economy, how to make our industries productive, how to put food on the tables of Nigerians… Count me out. Nigeria is currently at war. We need to do something about it.

I will bring stability in Nigeria within two years in office. Leaders of Nigeria should sit down in Nigeria and fix Nigeria’ he said.

 

Commenting on the intra party conflict in LP, Obi noted that efforts are ongoing to ensure that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) officially recognizes the Nenadi Usman-led faction in line with the Supreme Court’s ruling.

‘I believe in the rotation of government between North and South. I implemented it in Anambra as a governor’ he also submitted while giving his take on ‘power rotation’.

Mr Peter Obi also criticized President Bola Tinubu’s  trip to St. Lucia, noting that he has chosen to spend 10 days in a small country.

‘St Lucia is about the size of the 10th largest city in Nigeria, Ilorin. President Tinubu has never slept a night in any state of Nigeria outside Lagos since his assumption of office in 2023. PBAT has chosen to stay in St Lucia for 10 days’ he added.

The former LP presidential candidate has also disclosed what he plans to do in 2027.

‘We will do things differently in 2027. We will follow a non-violent approach and insist that the right thing will be done before the result announcement in Abuja. Our votes in 2027 will count, and we will ensure they count.

My family will not be involved in corruption. Funds to be channelled into key critical sectors.

There will be no defection of elected officials to other parties when I am in charge.

Imagine in this country, people are dying in Benue, Borno, and other parts of the country, and our leaders are inaugurating bus stops and holidaying.

 To bring order in governance, I will prioritize security, education and pulling people out of poverty. To do this is by cutting the cost of governance and fighting corruption from day one.

My past speaks loudly for me. Wherever there was an issue in Anambra State, I was there physically. Anybody who wants to serve should be ready to put their life on the line for the lives of Nigerians.
Nobody abroad takes you seriously if you don’t have a stable government’ Obi added- Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us? Do you want us to cover your event or programme? Kindly send SMS to 08035023079, 08059100286, 09094171980. Thank you
