The Labour Party Senatorial Candidate for Edo South Senatorial District, Mr Neda Imasuen has said that the Presidential Candidate of the party, Peter Obi has the panacea to the problems besetting the country.
He said the immediate past and current leadership in the country has proven that they are bereft of ideas to successfully sail the ship of the nation.
Imasuen disclosed this while delivering a position paper at the Network of Civil Society Organisations of Nigeria (NOCSON) summit in Benin-City.
According to him, “These traditional politicians have displayed their lack of knowledge to identify the remote problems facing the nation, let alone provide solutions to them.
“What Nigerian needs today is a dynamic knowledge of the challenges, ability to proffer solutions and integrity to provide leadership.
“These are part of the many qualities of our presidential candidate, Peter Obi of the Labour Party, who has the capacity and connection within and outside Nigeria to provide the much desired leadership that would take Nigeria to the next level.”
While addressing the subject titled, “Electoral Sensitisation and Mobilization Summit 2023” which had representatives of the civil society, security agencies, and political parties in attendance, Imasuen said, “There is need for a roundtable discussion about the way forward.
“As a nation, we are at a point where we can no longer run in circles and expect different results.
“The price of petrol has sparked protests across the city.
“It is shocking that we as a nation cannot operate or maintain a refinery despite a citizen building a refinery in three years.
“It boils down to leadership, or rather the lack of leadership, and it is this lack of leadership that has led us to where we are now.
“We must vote out these twin political parties come February 25th.
“In spite of the fact that three major candidates are running for the nation’s presidency, only Peter Obi can bring about the real change this country needs.
” He is the only candidate who has identified the problems and outlined a way of solving them, which is leadership, he added.
Imasuen then tasked the electorate to come out and vote massively for the Labour Party at all levels.
