Former Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, has reiterated his unwavering commitment to serving only one term if elected president in 2027. He maintains that four years is enough to bring transformative change to Nigeria, provided the leadership is focused, sincere, and driven by service to the people.

Obi made this known on Tuesday through his verified X (formerly Twitter) handle, expressing concern over the public reactions to his one-term pledge. He described the backlash as a reflection of the deep distrust many Nigerians have developed toward political promises.

“I find it baffling that my decision to serve only one term, if elected, is causing such agitation. It speaks volumes about how far we’ve strayed from believing that a sincere leader can accomplish much in just four years,” he said.

Leadership Should Be Purpose-Driven, Not Power-Hungry

Peter Obi, a former governor of Anambra State, emphasized that his political journey has never been driven by desperation or personal ambition. According to him, true leadership is about vision, character, and the desire to serve.

“Throughout my political career, I have never engaged in violence, rigging, or any form of electoral malpractice. I welcome investigations into my campaigns. You will find no record of ballot box snatching or political thuggery,” he added.

Obi warned against the culture of desperation that plagues Nigerian politics, noting that aggressive rhetoric, empty promises, and personal attacks are signs of weak leadership.

A Four-Year Plan for National Transformation

Obi believes that four years is sufficient time to confront Nigeria’s major challenges, including corruption, poor infrastructure, and underfunded public services.

“In four years, a determined government can reallocate wasted resources, like those spent on new presidential jets, into critical areas such as education, healthcare, and job creation.”

He further highlighted the need to uphold the rule of law, ensure electoral transparency, and promote policies that prioritize the welfare of all citizens.

Obi concluded by urging Nigerians to demand accountable and purpose-driven leadership, not just campaign slogans or charisma. He reiterated that he seeks public office only to contribute meaningfully to Nigeria’s progress, not to enjoy the perks of power.

“I am in this to see Nigeria work, not for personal ambition. Leadership is about responsibility, not entitlement.”
