Nigeria 2023 polls: I will end Lecturers’ strikes – Labour Party’s Peter Obi

If elected in 2023, Nigeria‘s Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi and vice presidential candidate Yusuf Baba-Ahmed promised to end doctor and ASUU strikes.

Speaking to a large crowd of supporters in Owerri, the capital of Imo State, Obi promised that he and Baba-Ahmed would work to restore power to the people, particularly to youth and women.

Furthermore, he stated that the prime concern will be to prioritise exports, invest in agriculture, and create jobs.

Issues like the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) strike, deterioration in the health sector, and corruption will be a thing of the past for the LP presidential contender.

One of the front-runners for the general election in 2023 is Peter Obi. This is Obi’s first significant campaign event in Imo, and as the election year of 2023 approaches, the party in the state announced additional initiatives to lure voters.

This is coming after the Presidential candidate finally released his campaign manifesto.

The 72-page manifesto titled, ‘It’s POssible: Our Pact with Nigerians’, was released after a long wait, speculations and disagreements among members of the LP, opposition parties and other vested interests.

Announcing the release of the manifesto on his verified Twitter page Sunday morning, Obi wrote, “I have the honour to present our 72-page Manifesto, titled, ‘It’s Pssible: Our Pact with Nigerians.’ This Manifesto, its overarching and visionary policy planks, lays out our mission focus and mandate for securing, uniting and making Nigeria productive.
