The Labour Party presidential candidate for the 2023 elections said Nigerians need good governance that would deliver good service to the people and make life more meaningful.
Obi who was speaking in Abakaliki during a conference said the main goal of his administration if he wins would be to develop human capacity so that the nation’s productivity would receive a boost.
“The overall task of our leadership in 2023 is to streamline governance and ensure that it is responsive, transformative, and effective. We will demonstrate that good governance is all about providing the needed services to the people,” Obi said.
“If elected the next president of Nigeria, youths would be the main proponents of my main agenda to transform Nigeria from a consuming nation to a producing nation. The two main components of this agenda are human capital development and finance.
“Under my leadership, the federal government will prioritise the ability of our educational system to produce the necessary skilled labour force that coincides with the 21st-century labour market demand, alongside providing entrepreneurial education at all levels.”
Obi said health and education are vital to the development of the country, promising to ensure “at least 100 million poor Nigerians have access to free medical care.”
