After months of waiting, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has unveiled his campaign manifesto.
Naija News reports that the campaign manifesto is titled “It’s POssible: Our Pact with Nigerians”.
The former Governor of Anambra State unveiled the 72-page manifesto via his Twitter handle on Sunday.
In the manifesto, the LP presidential candidate listed seven priorities his administration would concentrate on if elected president in 2023.
Obi also promised to move Nigeria from a consumption economy to a production-centred economy.
In the manifesto, the LP presidential candidate said he would end banditry and insurgency if elected president.
It reads: “Restructure the polity through effective legal and institutional reforms to entrench the rule of law, aggressively fight corruption, reduce cost of governance, and establish an honest and efficient civil service.
“Leapfrog Nigeria into the 4th Industrial Revolution (4IR) through the application of scientific and technological innovations to create a digital economy.
“Build expansive and world-class infrastructure for efficient powers supply, rail, road and air transportation, and pipeline network, through integrated public-private partnerships, and entrepreneurial public sector governance.
“Enhance the human capital of Nigerian youths for productivity and global competitiveness through investment in world-class scholarship and research, quality healthcare, and entrepreneurship education.
“Conduct an afro-centric diplomacy that protects the rights of Nigerian citizens abroad and advances the economic interests of Nigerians and Nigerian businesses in a changing world.”
I have the honour to present our 72-page Manifesto, titled, “It’s POssible: Our Pact with Nigerians.” This Manifesto, its overarching and visionary policy planks, lay out our mission focus and mandate for securing, uniting and making Nigeria productive.
