It comes from a profound reflection on where we are like a country and what must be done to go on. Our commitment is to sacrifice the sacrifice of the nation, for well -being, our beneficiary, “

Obi, who proposed to serve a single mandate in office, stressed that no single group could cause the change of wide change of Nigeria, saying: “To dismantle the structures that keep our people in poverty and insecurity, we must build bridges, not walls, even when those bridges are restless”.

“The Labor Party has constantly affirmed that it is not part of the coalition and, therefore, none of our members who are part of the coalition is given within 48 hours to formally resign its belonging to the party.

“The Labor Party is not available for people with a double agenda, people with a deceptive person. The party does not make use of people who have one leg in one part and another leg elsewhere. People who claim to be at the Labor party in the morning and are in coalition in the evening.

“Almost 70 percent of the Nigerian population are young, tired of the old order, tired of the gerontocrats who decide their destiny. The new Nigeria that young people dream is not what can be realized by what we are seeing in the coalition.

“The new Nigeria of our dreams can only be realized through the Labor Party and the party is willing to conduct the Nigerians along that trajectory.

“Therefore, urges all party members to remain loyal and keep the party structure intact before the future elections.”
