Let’s learn from Kenyan experience – Peter Obi tasks political leaders

Political leaders in Nigeria have been tasked with taking a lesson from Kenya’s recent experience by Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the general election of 2023.

Through his official X Twitter, Obi issued this call on Sunday in response to the recent protest against the proposed tax increases by Kenyan citizens.

He lamented the fact that public funds are used by political leaders in Nigeria to finance media goons to persecute and threaten journalists who tell it as it is.

He urged the leaders of Nigeria to give up these vices and begin making sacrifices for the benefit of the suffering people.

“We, the Nigerian political leaders, should take a strong lesson from the recent Kenyan experience. When the Kenyan public realized that their government was not making sufficient sacrifices and prioritizing resources effectively, they spoke out, demanded change,

“We resort to using public funds to pay media thugs to insult and abuse those who speak truth to power.

“True change and progress will require leaders who are sincere, willing to listen, act responsibly, and prioritize the welfare of the people over personal or political interests. If we make the necessary changes and make the needed sacrifices, a new Nigeria is possible,” he said.
