The magazine reports that a former governor of Kaduna state, Nasir El- Rufai on Monday, urged opposition parties in the country to come together to save the country’s democracy, saying the ruling party has failed the people.

According to Obi, what matters to him as a top opposition party is how to save the country, and not how to take over ‘power.’

He explained that the welfare of Nigerians is currently in uppermost to him, and not the desperation to ‘grab’ power, saying this is “the most important thing for now.”

He said, “I’m not interested in any coalition for purpose of taking power. It is about discussing Nigeria. “How do we care about securing the Nigerians?

“How do we care about our children being in school? That is the most important thing for now.”
