Peter Obi reacts to Tinubu’s long convoy, says "leaders must show example"

Mr Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election has reacted to the trending videos on social media space showing President Bola Tinubu’s long convoy in Lagos, stating that leaders who ask followers to sacrifice for a better Nigeria must also lead by example. Obi spoke on Thursday at St Faith Cathedral, Church of Nigeria Anglican Communion, Awka, during the burial Mass of the late Dean Emeritus of the Church of Nigeria, the Most Reverend Maxwell Anikwenwa, who died at 83.

Peter Obi reacts to Tinubu’s long convoy, says "leaders must show example"

President Tinubu and Peter Obi According to Peter Obi, there was a need to cut down on the cost of governance, and that has always been his position about governance. He said: “I have not seen the video you talked about, but let me tell you what I have always said: that present Nigeria requires that all those who serve and lead must do so by example. “The behaviour, character, and public conduct of those who serve must be in consonance with what society requires today. You cannot continue to preach to the people to sacrifice without sacrificing. “The sacrifice must start with the leaders, visibly, measurably at all times, because the people are suffering and we must all be at the forefront of the suffering.” Obi, while speaking on the life of the late Archbishop Anikwenwa, said: “He is not just a pastor of God, but a great Nigerian who contributed to this country beyond his pastoral work in building a better Nigeria. “He is involved in advocating for a better Nigeria, good governance, and others. He was a great Nigerian and a great Igbo man, and I am not surprised about the number of people at [this] burial ceremony today.” Earlier, several prominent Nigerians, including; Anambra State governor, Prof Chukwuma Soludo, his deputy, Dr Onyekachi Ibezim, Senator Victor Umeh, and Archbishop Province of the Niger and Bishop of Awka Diocese, Most Reverend Dr Chibuzo Ibezim, paid tribute to Anikwenwa. Archbishop Metropolitan and Primate of All Nigeria, Most Reverend Dr Henry Ndukuba, described Anikwenwa as a soldier of Christ, saying that he is a rich reservoir of knowledge and church history. “He was a man who did all to please God, a soldier of Christ indeed. His death is not just a loss to the diocese but to the church and the country at large, as he holds a special award of the country. “He was a disciplinarian and a great timekeeper, and he was always mindful of it. I call on his wife and children to be comforted by the fact that Baba lived a great life.”

Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, a federal lawmaker representing Abia South senatorial district has shared his experience from serving as Deputy Governor to Orji Uzor Kalu, before resigning from the position following a third attempt to impeach him in 2003. Addressing journalists at an interactive session in Umuahia, Abia state’s capital on Thursday, June 8, Abaribe narrated how Orji Uzor Kalu allegedly took away his convoy and handed it over to his wife, shortly after they were sworn in as Governor and Deputy Governor.

On the day I was sworn in, I took the oath first, the governor, Kalu, took the oath, after everything was done and we were to go to Okpara auditorium for lunch, I couldn’t find my vehicle. “The vehicle was given to me by the departing colonel Obi, a convoy, and we stood there, I and my wife, and we were looking, where is the convoy? Eventually, we managed to scramble into a relative’s vehicle to take us to the event centre.

This is the kind of things that people see in politics. “There are two ways to react; you lie back and take it or you strongly protest and then you are tagged a trouble maker.” Orji Uzor Kalu who is currently pushing to become senate president in the 10th assembly, is yet to comment on the allegation.

Their convoy took the advantage of the police’s absence to drive at high speed as they snaked their way between other cars on the road. Watch the video below:
