The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, Peter Obi, has said he is not desperate to become Nigeria’s president in 2027, insisting that his priority is to see the country work regardless of who leads it.
Obi made the remarks during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, where he clarified that his ambition is driven by a desire to transform the country rather than occupy public office.
Responding to a question on whether his mission to “fix Nigeria” meant he would be done with politics if he failed to become president in 2027, Obi said, “That’s not the idea. I’ve always said that I am not desperate to become President of Nigeria. I am desperate to see Nigeria work. If it is working, I will support whatever makes it work.”
The former Labour Party presidential candidate added that he would support anyone capable of moving the country forward.
