The former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has urged Nigerians to firmly utilize their Permanent Voters Cards (PVCs) against those he labeled as enemies of Nigeria.
Obi made this appeal on Wednesday during his official transition from the Labour Party (LP) to the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
He emphasized that Nigerians must not permit those who have benefited from the nation’s democracy to undermine it for personal gain.
“Those who once thrived in our democracy have now become complicit in its destruction and the rise of gangsterism. We cannot allow this to occur.
“We have one year to discern who has received an education and who has not. We have one year for individuals to disclose the schools they attended and their graduation dates.
“We want to avoid situations where we have to go to court after the election only to be told it’s a pre-election matter. We currently have a pre-election scenario to verify the credentials of everyone who intends to contest in the elections for Nigeria, and we must hold them accountable,” he stated.
