Obi visited George and Lagos State PDP stakeholders and executives for his presidential aspiration.
George said that people like Obi possess the tested and proven competent, both in the corporate and public spaces to pilot the affairs of Nigeria, adding that he should be given the chance to salvage Nigeria from further failure.
He said: “I knew Peter Obi even before he became Governor. He has a firm background of entrepreneurship, expert knowledge of finance and economy, and sound record of public service, considering what he did in Anambra State.
“Nigeria definitely needs a capable leader like Peter Obi to rescue it from the myriad of challenges it is contending with. I urge Nigerians to support him and give him the chance to fix our nation.”
Obi equally pledged to continue to contribute to building a better nation for all. He lamented the astronomically high level of insecurity in the nation. He urged Nigerians to make the right decisions in 2023 to avoid losing the country to criminal elements, bent on overrunning the entire country.
