The presidential candidate of the Nigerian Democratic Congress, Peter Obi, hosted his running mate, Rabiu Kwankwaso, at the Obidient Headquarters in Abuja on Monday.
The visit was also joined by the gubernatorial and senatorial candidates, and other aspirants of the NDC.
Obi, in a tweet on Tuesday, via his X handle, noted that their discussions focused primarily on how to expand and build the party's reach nationwide.
The former Anambra State governor also stated that he reassured the party faithful of his commitment to working with them, adding that his pairing with Kwankwaso aims to "rescue Nigeria from the calamitous and ineffective leadership that has brought our country to its present condition."
The tweet read, "Yesterday, I had the pleasure of hosting my dear elder brother and our vice presidential candidate, His Excellency, Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, alongside the gubernatorial, senatorial, and other candidates of our great party, the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC), from various states across the country, at the Obidient Headquarters in Abuja.
"Our discussions focused primarily on strategies to expand and deepen the reach of our party and take our message of national redemption to rural communities and the hinterlands.
"I reassured our candidates of my continued support in their respective states and constituencies. I also reaffirmed my commitment to working with them and undertaking the necessary groundwork to secure victory for our party.
"Our commitment is to commence lifting vulnerable Nigerians out of poverty, reduce the number of out-of-school children, support small and medium-sized businesses, secure our nation, unite our people, and move Nigeria from consumption to production."
Obi, while speaking at the Koinonia Global of Apostle Joshua Selman on Sunday, said politicians and poor leadership are responsible for Nigeria’s challenges.
He said there was nothing inherently wrong with Nigeria, arguing that the country’s major problem was the quality of its leadership.
“I believe that people like you are the ones keeping our country. The only thing I can ask all of you who are gathered here, because I know he’s praying for the country, is that you remember us, the politicians, in your prayers,” Obi stated....
