Nigeria can’t continue to bury men in uniform – Peter Obi
Former Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi has reaffirmed his one term of four years stance if elected president in 2027.
Obi vowed to serve only one term as president if elected in 2027.
In a statement he issued on Sunday, Obi declared, “My One-Term, Four-Year Vow Is Sacrosanct.”
The former Anambra State governor noted that those skeptical of his one-term pledge are judging him by their standards.
He said: “John F. Kennedy, did not even complete a full term, yet his vision and ideals continue to inspire generations. In Africa, Nelson Mandela, revered globally as a symbol of justice and reconciliation, chose to serve only one term as President of South Africa, despite immense public pressure to stay longer.
“His decision was a deliberate act of leadership, a statement that power must serve the people, not the self.
“I understand the basis of their scepticism. They are judging me by their own standards – where political promises are made to be broken.
“But they forget, or perhaps choose to ignore, that Peter Obi is not cut from that cloth. I have a verifiable track record that speaks louder than speculation.
“My vow to serve only one term of four years is a solemn commitment, rooted in my conviction that purposeful, transparent leadership does not require an eternity.”
