The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the just-concluded elections, Peter Obi, has said that nobody can force him to leave Nigeria.
Recall that Obi had accused some unnamed individuals of trying to mount pressure on him to leave the country or face arrest for treason.
Speaking at the Onitsha Holiday Resort, Onitsha, on Thursday, the former Anambra State Governor said the Labour Party is committed to creating a new Nigeria.
According to him, there are too many “thieves” who are inflicting suffering on the masses.
He vowed that his party is committed to purging the country’s political system of such thieves, stressing that he would not give up until they are shown the way out of political offices in the country.
“There is too much suffering in this country, and, that is what we, in Labour Party, are fighting to end. There are many thieves in the country. So, Labour Party is fighting to create a new Nigeria. I am here with you, and nobody is going to force me to leave Nigeria,” Peter Obi said.
