What I Will Do To Atiku, Tinubu When I Succeed Buhari – Peter Obi
The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has stated that he would retire the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubarkar, and All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, if he wins the February 25 election.
Speaking at the campaign rally in Asaba, Delta State on Monday, Peter Obi said he was glad to be called ‘Mr Stingy’ as Nigerians will not want to elect persons who are known to have looted the treasury of the nation in the past.
According to the LP flagbearer, he would revitalize the Warri refinery which has been in disrepair and also ensure the completion of the East-West road that has remained uncompleted in the last 24 years.
He stated that both the APC and PDP candidates are already old, adding that they would be retired and compensated.
Peter Obi said: “We will make Warri Port work again. We will complete the East-West road. They have been building the road for 24 years but we will complete it.
“If you put my age and Datti’s age and divide it into two, we are in our fifties. The other people if you put their own they are in their seventies. You know that there is a retirement age. The PDP chairman is 70 years, APC chairman is 70 years. The Labour Party chairman is 52 years old. So it is our turn. We will retire them, we will pay them compensation.
“Our government will be one for youth and women. That is why I told you our average age, not these other people we don’t know their age, we don’t know where they were born, we don’t know which school they attended.
“I know you heard when they said Peter is stingy. I agree, Nigeria doesn’t want people who will steal their money again. We want to use our money for our people.
“This election is about character and people we can trust. Everybody knows the schools I attended. When I was the governor in Anambra everybody knows what I did, all the work I did. When I left government, everybody knows where I live, go and verify.”
