The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has said that fiscal recklessness, inability to tackle insecurity and corruption have been primarily responsible for Nigeria’s failing economy.

Obi also said that domestic problems, caused by leadership failure, have damaged the unity and cohesiveness of the country.

The former Anambra State governor, while speaking at the Private Sector Economic Forum organised by the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry on Monday, said the government that would succeed the Major Gen. Muhammadu Buhari regime in 2023 would be confronted by an array of daunting challenges, both domestic and external.

Obi, who said Nigeria was not bereft of transformative ideas from brilliant minds, noted that institutional weakness and lack of political will had led to poor outcomes that had affected the people. He regretted that Nigeria now had frightening levels of poverty, unemployment rate and out-of-school children.

According to him, given our history, politics and governance challenges, moving Nigeria forward would require concerted efforts and a shift from coercive to consensus approach.

One Year After Abduction, Whereabouts Of Anambra Labour Party Governorship Candidate, Agbasimalo Remain Unknown | Sahara ReportersExactly one year after the Anambra governorship candidate of the Labour Party in the 2021 election, Mr Obiora Agbasimalo, got missing, his whereabouts have remained unknown. Agbasimalo was kidnapped by unknown gunmen on September 18, 2021, while on a campaign tour to Azhia in the Ihiala Local Government Area of the state. He has not been seen or heard of ever since the abduction. I want people to understand that the man at aso rock is an imposter he's in a contract to impersonate buhari in return he will do as they said that is why you see somebody concificate public fund into his/her pocket and go unpunished. This is sad God will judge everybody according to his works. I don't believe that man is still alive, he can't be alive since one year without contact of any kind. However, let us continue to hope and pray for his safe release.
