The 2023 Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party (LP) and presidential hopeful on the platform of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has visited Kaduna , describing the state as strategic in Nigeria.
Obi, who shared his visit on his verified facebook Sunday evening said there was need to rekindle the spirit of unity and coexistence for which Kaduna was once known.
He maintained that a divided society cannot progress, but a united, just, and inclusive one will always find a path to peace and development.
The presidential hopeful noted that Kaduna was once a symbol of unity and coexistence, a major hub for industry, agriculture, and commerce, “and it still holds that potential. With disciplined, competent, and people-oriented leadership, we can restore that lost glory for the benefit of all”
According to Obi, “Today, as part of my nationwide consultations, I visited Kaduna State, where I met with our party stakeholders and members, including Dr. Alhaji Ahmed Tijjani, a gubernatorial hopeful, and Senator Lawal Adamu, who represents Kaduna Central.
“What I observed in them was not just political ambition but a sincere desire to serve the people and contribute to the rebuilding of our country.
Kaduna remains a very strategic state in Nigeria. It was once a symbol of our unity and coexistence, a major hub for industry, agriculture, and commerce, and it still holds that potential. With disciplined, competent, and people-oriented leadership, we can restore that lost glory for the benefit of all”
Obi added, “During my interactions, I emphasized the need for our leaders to move away from the politics of money and to embrace the politics of competence, character, and measurable results.
“This visit has strengthened my belief that with the right leadership and collective effort, we can build a Nigeria that works—one where every citizen, regardless of background, has a sense of belonging and opportunity. I leave Kaduna feeling encouraged and hopeful that a New Nigeria is Possible” he stated.
