The chief spokesman of the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organisation, Yunusa Tanko, has said that the candidacy of Peter Obi is powerful enough to attract Nigerians abroad back to the country.
Speaking during a televised interview with ARISENEWS from 5:25, he stated, “He is a single unifying factor that can unite the country within a short period of time. Just that announcement and allowing him or supporting him to become president, do you know the number of people that would have come back into this economy? Most of the people who have traveled out of the country, both of them are technical, academicians. Everybody will want to come back.”
Tanko also highlighted Obi’s youth appeal. “Just because he’s running for election12.5 million Nigerian youth registered to vote. It’s a unifying factor.”
He said Obi has the capacity to fix the country. “He can take care of the economic situation. He can deal with the issue of tribal sentiment. He can deal with the issue of religion. He can deal with the issue of lack of education because this is a man who has been able to bring his own people from the 26th position in WAEC to number one.”
Tanko added that Obi has already proven his ability to face public scrutiny. “No single presidential candidate as of today can withstand to go on a Twitter Space and face those Nigerians who are angry, no single one. And he has been able to do it time without number.”
