Speaking after the exercise, Obi, the committee “carefully reviewed all my documents, including my degree certificate, NYSC credentials and age statement.
“During the process, I also answered questions regarding my vision for the new Nigeria and the type of leadership our country desperately needs at this time. After that, I was approved and received the presidential nomination form that I had previously paid for.”
