2027: Obi Reveals Conditions To Accept VP Role (Video)
The 2023 presidential candidate for the Labour Party, Petre Obi, has expressed his openness to collaborating with other politicians for the 2027 election.
In an interview with News Central, Obi mentioned that he was willing to work with anyone, including Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, the former presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
However, Obi emphasized that any collaboration must focus on improving the lives of citizens rather than just winning elections. He said, “I’m ready to collaborate with anyone who is interested in lifting people out of poverty. If the collaboration is for state capture or just to win an election, I will not be part of it.”
He further explained, “I will not join anybody for state capture or for winning the election. I want anybody to tell me how we are going to ensure that no child is left behind and how we will get millions of out-of-school children back in school.”
When asked if he would consider being a vice president for another politician, Obi stated that he would be open to the role if he found someone who could do the job better than he could. He clarified, “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.”
Obi also mentioned that he has no plans to leave the Labour Party. He said, “Yes, I would be here, and if anybody is coming for us to negotiate or come together, he must tell me what his purposes are.”
