The
presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, will on Monday honour
the invitation to speak extensively about his economic blueprint at Chatham
House in London, United Kingdom.
This was revealed in the statement issued by
the spokesman of his presidential campaign council, Dr Yunusa Tanko, on
Saturday.
Tanko noted that Obi accepted the invitation
of the global policy institution to speak on ‘Nigeria’s 2023 Elections: A
vision for policy change and institutional reforms.’
The statement partly read, “The LP’s
presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi is to honour a long-standing invitation to
speak at Chatham House, a global policy institution that celebrated its
centennial in 2021.
“Obi would use the opportunity to speak to the global
audience about his programmes for the Nigerian presidency, his motivation and
determination to engineer a new Nigeria through purposeful leadership, and good
governance to address the huge challenges facing Nigeria, especially insecurity
and economic decline.
“The
LP’s presidential candidate is expected to showcase his well-tailored out
blueprint on how to move our great country from a consumptive nation to a
productive State.
“Before now, Obi has appeared in virtually all
town hall meetings outlining his programmes on how to make Nigeria a better
place for all Nigerians. He has promised that ‘japa’ will come to an end
because nobody will want to leave Nigeria if he’s voted president of Nigeria.
“Without
mincing words, he has also said fuel subsidy is an organised crime which he
will yank off immediately after he assumes office and turn the wide land space of the
north into massive farmland in Nigeria.
“Obi has vowed to declare total war on the
power sector by ensuring that an increase to 1200mgw is achievable within a
very short period. And many others as enunciated in LP’s economic blueprint.”
