Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, has said that he must be Nigeria’s president.
Peter Obi, who finished third in the 2023 presidential election, made this statement on Friday during the launch of the book “Peter Obi: Many Voices, One Perspectives” in Awka, the capital of Anambra State.

The goal of the book presentation was to gather money for Mr Peter Obi’s current election court lawsuit.
He said;
Anyone who thinks I’m on transit is wasting his time. Let me tell you, I must be the president of this country. I’m sure of that. If it is not today, it must be tomorrow.
Other people who want to be, should come and tell us what they want to do, and how to do it. This is my country, I don’t have dual citizenship. If anyone thinks I am going to run away from Nigeria, they are lying.
I have three engagements in Anambra and Lagos today. I will be speaking in Lagos tonight. We will not leave Nigeria. I am not in a hurry to become the president, but I know it must happen.
For three years I was in court in Anambra to reclaim my governorship, just to challenge the process. Many people tried to discourage me, but I said even if the entire four years tenure elapsed for us to prove a point and correct the process, I will be fulfilled.
I must be the president of this country; if not today, it will be next time. I’m not desperate; I’m not in a hurry. I’m committed to cause of better Nigeria.
Obi also said he would respect the decision of the court in the ongoing electoral dispute.
We are peaceful, we are not going to quarrel with any politician. Don’t be discourage about my apologies to people. As youth, we cannot fight our fathers, even when we are right.
