Hold us accountable on campaign promises, Obi tells supporters in Benue

Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), says if he is elected into office, Nigerians should hold him accountable on campaign promises.

Speaking on Wednesday at the LP presidential campaign rally in Makurdi, the Benue capital, Obi said the federal government under his leadership would support every state.

The presidential candidate also said he would ensure that the country’s security apparatus is revamped.

“What I want to say to Nigerians is that I want Nigerians to hold me responsible. Our government will not remain in Abuja; it will go to the states. I will listen to their problems,” he said.

“We will secure and bring peace to Benue state. Those who want to go back to their villages will go back. Those who want to go back to their farms will go back to them and we will support them. Our government is about securing Nigeria.

“We will ensure that we restructure the entire security infrastructure in Nigeria, and we will give them all the moral support.

“FG under me and Datti will support every state. Everything I say today, take it. Hold us responsible. We will start building a new Nigeria where there will be law, peace.”
