“We must continue to live on the path of peace, religious harmony, ethnic harmony, and coexistence, that is the most important thing for now.

“Let’s have a peaceful, quiet Nigeria where government will concentrate on caring for the sufferings of the people,” Obi said.

He noted that there are questions and issues with the last election, stressing that citizens must have to live peacefully and be able to work and concentrate on facing the issues of Nigeria which is insecurity, poverty, education and other very important aspects of the nation’s existence.

Obi who was accompanied by his running mate, Senator Datti Baba-Ahmed, tasked the incoming administrations at all levels to deal with issues of high youth unemployment, poverty and insecurity, especially in the Northern region.
