Nigeria Needs Parties Bigger Than Government – Peter Obi

Peter Obi has tasked Nigerians to be committed to building political parties that are bigger than government and law abiding.

The Labour Party Presidential Candidate for 2023 General Elections stated this in his remarks at the public presentation of two books entitled, The Bubbles of Nigeria’s Democracy: The Musings of a Nigerian Journalist and Wadata Wonders: Memoirs of a Partisan Journalist.

The books were authored by veteran journalist, Ike Abonyi.

Obi, while urging Nigerians to remain committed to building that new Nigeria, advised citizens, especially journalists with deep knowledge of Nigeria politics, to write more for people to read and understand the nature of Nigeria political space.

“ We are working hard to build that new Nigeria where we are going to have political parties that will outlive us, that is organised, that will be bigger than the government.

“Because, as it is narrated here, we now have a situation where those of us who are opportune to be in government, have helped to ruin the parties.

“Let’s hope that one day, we will have parties that are bigger than government, that will run the way parties are run in other nations of the world and will be law-abiding

“I thank those who are writing and let us remain committed to building that new Nigeria,’’ he said.
