* Declares: A new Nigeria is possible
The Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, has expressed gratitude to his supporters for staging series of rallies across the country, as well as abroad in support of his bid to win the 2023 election.
Supporters of the Labour Party candidate for the 2023 presidential election and those of his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed have lately shut down major cities across Nigeria while holding rallies.
Most remarkable were rallies held in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja; Lagos State, and some towns and cities in the Southern and Northern parts of the country, including Kaduna State, where the supporters were told not to hold any rally.
Expressing his gratitude, Obi said that his supporters have shown the world that Nigeria is ready for change.
He wrote: “Dear OBIdients, today will go down in history as a day Nigerians spoke with one united voice; the message is clear and simple – A NEW NIGERIA IS POSSIBLE!
“From Lagos, Bauchi, Benin City, Warri, Osogbo, Kaduna, Uyo, Aba, London, New York and many more, OBIdients made a bold statement with generally very peaceful rallies.
“The very young, and old men and women in their millions marched in solidarity and in support of our collective vision of a New Nigeria.
“I salute Nigerian Youths. I thank you all most sincerely, for your passion, resolve and resiliency. You have shown the world that Nigeria is ready for change, and that the majority are ready to lead the way. Thank you all for the sacrifices.
“Our labours shall never be in vain and there is no stopping us now. May Almighty God bless you all and bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
