Singer Peter Okoye better known as Mr P has said that the former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, is the most qualified candidate for the presidency in 2023 because he is a “disciplined and principled man.”
Mr P made this known on Twitter on Monday.
Sharing a photo of Obi, wrote: “I don’t like getting involved in Politics but you this Man right here! He is the most qualified to save and fix our beloved Country! A Disciplined and Principled man. He will tell you the place, name, and time of what he did. Go & Verify Pls give us PETER OBI.”
During an interview with BBC Pidgin published on May 22, Peter Obi stated he was not desperate to be president but only wants to see a prosperous Nigeria.
“My lifelong ambition is to see a Nigeria that is prosperous. I am not desperate to become Nigerian president,” he said.
Obi noted that he was already a successful man before he entered politics.
“I don’t want to become president because of what I’ll gain. I want to become Nigerian president because of what I can offer,” he said.
“If it is money I want I will not leave over N70 billion in Anambra State account when I was leaving office. How many governors can do that?”
