The presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi has come out to say that the All Progressives Congress would have succeeded in moving Nigeria forward if it had chosen Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo as its candidate.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he once told the leadership of APC that if they wanted Nigeria to work as a progressive country, they should have just given Osinbajo the party’s presidential ticket since someone as healthy as him can work 24 hours.

Obi added that he is desperate to see a working Nigeria, and he will never hide that fact.

His words, “I am desperate to see Nigeria working, I can’t hide it. I even confronted them if you want it, why didn’t you bring Osinbajo so that we can have people who want to work for the country?”

“Nigeria needs a healthy person and someone like him working 24 hours. Let’s have the place working for everyone.”
