May 27: We must consider the children’s decision in our political decisions- Peter Obi

Presidential candidate and former Anambra state governor Peter Obi has advised Nigerians to always consider children’s future in their political decisions.

Obi gave the advice in light of the 2022 Children’s Day commemoration, which is observed every May 27.

Obi, whose popular slogan is: “The society we abuse today will take its revenge on our children tomorrow”, said the slogan was borne out of the pattern he observed over the years, where politicians do not think about tomorrow and about the children, insisting that no country can survive by recklessness and extravagance.

He said that national development parameters continue to point to uncertainty for Nigerian children’s future due to government failures at various levels.

According to him, unless the present dangerous trend of failure is reversed, the Nigerian child will remain disadvantaged.

Obi urged Nigerians to leverage the coming elections and elect a leader who has the interest of the people at heart, noting that they must avoid being seduced into transactional politics and ensure that only credible persons, with track records of success, are elected into power.

He advised children to remain on good behaviour, take their education seriously and remain law-abiding and useful to the society while wishing them a happy children’s day.

Recall that Obi has been in the eye of the storm over his recent resignation from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and withdrawal from the presidential race under the same party.
