Former presidential aspirant, Peter Obi has said that he is desperate to see Nigeria work.
According to him, he is not desperate to be the president but he only wants the country to succeed.
The former governor of Anambra state spoke recently when he appeared on New Central TV.
Answering questions on the possibility of him accepting to be a vice-presidential candidate for the 2027 election, Obi said, “Quite frankly, for me, I’m not desperate to be Nigerian president. I am desperate to see Nigeria work. If I see people who can do the work better, I will.
“I even have people who say I should not come out in 2027 and I said to them, offer yourself. And we will not put everybody on a scale.”
On the rumour that he may dump the Labour Party due to the leadership crisis, the former governor said, “I would be here and if anybody is coming for us to negotiate or to come together, he must tell me what his purposes are”.
There are rumors that Rabiu Kwankwaso of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, and Peter Obi may form an alliance ahead of the 2027 election.
