He used the visit to re- emphasise  his conviction that the problems of Nigeria are rooted in human capital development indices such as food security, education, health and water .

” For now, let us talk about how we are going to survive till then ( 2027)  because, we politicians always focus on the next elections and not about human beings. For me, let the people survive first, before we can talk about the next elections.

“Let us focus on Nigeria ,and see that Nigeria works, and if Nigeria is working ,Labour Party will work . But if Nigeria fails ,Labour Party fails.” Obi stated .

Addressing party members that came with Obi, the LP National Chairman, Abure, expressed the appreciation of the National Working Committee, NWC,  for the visit, and noted that “It is  high time the varying groups of dissent voices over the Nnewi Convention came together and set all their personal interests aside and work for a Party that would make a good show in the next elections.

“I want to say this very clearly. The National Convention has come and gone. All those who are still angry  over the Nnewi convention, we want to appeal to them that they should all come together to work with us to build the party for a new Nigeria that has a vision.
