Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the February 25 elections, stormed Eagles Square, Abuja on the occasion of the 2023 Workers Day yesterday, where he admonished workers to keep the fire burning, as there’s “no other country we have aside from this and we must build for it our children.”
Obi who was gladly received said in his goodwill message: “I am here on a solidarity visit. All leaders, we are all workers. All of us are workers. I thank you Mr president for what you are doing. The topic of today is workers’ rights and socio-economic justice.
“When you talk about it, we talk about justice for all. We want to build a country where Nigerians will be proud to say that they are Nigerians. A country where people will not be struggling to go out. A country where workers will be working and say that they are happy.
“And that is why we say we want to move the country from consumption to production. I encourage you to continue what you are doing. There is no other country we have aside from this and we must build for it our children,” the ex-Anambra state Governor stated.
