Nigeria is an IDP camp as long as citizens are living in IDP camps. Pete Obi

IDP camps will continue to exist in Nigeria as long as residents are compelled to flee their homes, according to Mr. Peter Obi, a presidential candidate for the Labour Party.

Prof. Akin Osuntokun responded to questions from journalists yesterday in Abuja following the announcement of the new Director General of the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council. He stated that his aspiration was based on his belief that Nigerians deserve better leadership than they are currently receiving.

We’re working to make Nigeria better, he remarked. I’ve been traveling and seeing individuals in challenging situations, like as those living in IDP camps, throughout this time.

“Nigeria as a nation is an IDP camp if Nigerians are forced to leave their homes and live in IDP camps since these are Nigerians who belong in their homes.

“The goal of government is to look out for its citizens, and the least fortunate are those who get the most care from the government.

“I pledge to make sure that no Nigerian has to live in an IDP camp and that every Nigerian goes to bed and wakes up glad to be a Nigerian.”

He expressed optimism that the nation’s young people, whom he characterized as resourceful and diligent, were ready to take back the country and make it work for everyone this time around.

He asserts that young people in Nigeria are not idle; rather, they were only seeking for chances to compete well with their peers on the international scene.

He said the sort of leadership he and his group were providing Nigerians would make such ambitions come true.

He has already clarified that removing Okupe as Campaign DG did not result in a shift in tactics.

He said that the party’s pledge to retake Nigeria from the forces that have left it in ruins is still part of its campaign plan.
