2023 will be about competence, not connection – Peter Obi

According to Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s candidate for president, the 2023 elections won’t be decided by connections, ancestry, or religion, but rather by competence, moral fiber, and a will to fulfill promises.

This was said by Obi at the Nigerian Bar Association’s 2022 Annual General Meeting, which is now taking place at the Eko Hotels.

Obi said, “Remember, the election we are going to have next year will not be about tribe, not religion, not connection, not entitlement, but about character, competence, capacity, and commitment to deliver.”

Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s nominee for president, is also present.

The All Progressives Congress vice presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima, is also present at the ceremony to speak on behalf of the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu.

The general conference for the 2022 NBA AGM, with the opening ceremony taking place today and the general conference scheduled to run from August 19 to August 26, has the topic “BOLD Transitions.”
