Peter Obi In Europe, Participates In High-Level Meetings To Address Nigeria’s Future.

The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Mr. Peter Obi is in Europe to participate in high-level meetings addressing issues of fundamental importance to Nigeria’s future.
Obi announced this on Thursday in post on X, stating that following visits within the week to Benue, Pleateau states and Abuja, he Germany and the United Kingdom to participate in the meetings.
“Our conversations addressed democracy and electoral integrity, the escalating challenge of poverty, education, corruption, healthcare, and, above all, practical ways to improve the lives and preserve the dignity of our people.
“I was especially encouraged by the sincere readiness of our international partners to support Nigeria, particularly in the critically important area of education.
“I have consistently emphasised that education is the most valuable investment we can make in our people, because no nation can create a prosperous and sustainable future without developing the knowledge, skills, and capabilities of its citizens,” the NDC presidential candidate said.
Obi restated his commitment to transforming the Nigerian economy from consumption to production, calling on Nigerians to unite towards achieving this goal.
“We must intentionally transition Nigeria from consumption to production, from dependence to productivity, from wasteful practices to responsible resource management, and from division to a common national purpose.
“Together, we can create a Nigeria in which every child receives a quality education, democracy genuinely embodies the people’s will, healthcare is within reach, public resources are administered responsibly, and every Nigerian enjoys a fair chance to lead a dignified and productive life,” he said.
Within the week Obi visited Benue, but was prevented by alleged thugs from going to see internally displaced persons who were sacked from their homes following attacks by gunmen earlier in the year.
He was also in Plateau State to visit displaced persons in Mangu Local Government Area of the state.
Obi returned to Abuja and joined the Governor of Oyo State, Seyi Makinde, as he opened his campaign office to run in the 2027 general election as the presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement, APM.
