” We will not rest until we are able to take over government
and provide the people quality leadership that will work for the country.
“How do you reconcile a situation where we export crude oil
only to import refined products at high costs. Nigeria’s problem is bad
leadership, and once we get it right, every other thing will be fixed.
” Today, you can see that Nigeria is not moving as it
should. A bag of rice sells for N120, 000 while minimum wage is N30,000. A
tuber of yam that previously sold for N500 is now N1200.
” Life has become
very difficult in Nigeria; security challenges are enormous; inflation is very
high; unemployment is increasing, and people now find it increasingly difficult
to feed. This is the reality in Nigeria today under APC Government.
” We will provide a leadership that will fight poverty and
fight hunger; a leadership that will empathize with the people and liberate
them.
” We believe that a New Nigeria is possible. Nigerians are
needlessly suffering in the midst of plenty. This country can become bigger if
well managed.”
The LP Chairman who said he was being persecuted because he
was leading a party that had uttered the political landscape in favour of the
masses, however, vowed that no amount of intimidation or vilification would
deter the party from providing credible alternative to the people.
” We were able to put up a formidable campaign in the 2023
general elections. For the first time, as opposition, we changed the political
trajectory in Nigeria. We gave them a run for their money.
” Since after the election, we have not rested. We have had
one crisis or the other – people being instigated within the party to make
trouble with the leadership. You see the issues of Apapa, and the National
Treasurer. But we have always surmounted them.
” All the allegations at the police have been resolved in
our favour. We cannot be deterred. We will continue to do what is right to
provide leadership.”
