Former Anambra State governor and Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 elections has urged Nigerians to follow in the example of Kemi Badenoch and shun tribal politics which has left Nigeria in a prostrating position.
Obi who sent a congratulatory message to Ms. Badenoch who emerged as the first black woman to lead a major political party in the United Kingdom, said Nigerians need to shun tribal and religious sentiments if they want their country to be liberated.
“The news of Nigerian-born Kemi Badenoch’s election as leader of the Conservative Party in the United Kingdom couldn’t have come at a better time, as events in Nigeria have left many questioning their own potential,” Obi wrote on his X page on Sunday.
“Her election is a testament to the global potential of Nigerian and African youth.
“As we celebrate Kemi’s achievement, let it serve as a catalyst for change in Nigeria. It’s time to move beyond outdated traditions of tribalism, religious bias, and the ‘my turn’ syndrome,” Obi urged. “A new generation of leaders who embody competence, integrity, and fresh perspectives can pave the way for a better future for Nigeria and Africa.”
