The vice Presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2019 general elections, Peter Obi stated that the South-East has not been treated fairly unlike other regions in the country.
The Former Governor of Anambra State said this during an interview on Arise News Morning show, he noted that there are capable hands who can navigate the country through its current challenges, but that the flawed electoral process won’t let that happen.
Peter Obi also went further to speak on his support for the restructuring of Nigeria and insist that only that way will the citizen get the best out of the various resources God has blessed the country with.
“It is only fair that you treat every part of the nation fairly and equally. Are Igbos being treated fairly? The answer is no…For me, I believe we should restructure this country in such a way that every part of the country would be competitive and we would get the best out of our resources,” he said.
On the 2020 budget presented by the Buhari-led executive to the National Assembly, Peter Obi described it as “low and empty” and further explained that the only way to increase revenue in the country is to create more employment.
