No nation can progress amidst insecurity – Obi

Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, Mr Peter Obi, has said no nation can make progress in the midst of insecurity. He said the people must first feel secure before progress can be made.

Obi said this during scholarships and awards night for icons of democracy, organised by the Coalition for the Protection of Democracy (COPDEM).

At the event, which took place in Abuja, tributes were paid to the champions of democracy, whose unwavering dedication has paved the way for positive change in Nigeria.

Represented by former chairman of Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Peter Ameh, he said “The award represents the extraordinary undefeated spirit of the Nigerian people. The Nigerian people were very committed in 2023. Peter Obi came into the election with integrity, sincerity and a track record of working for the people and that record even in the public and private sector was enough to propel him to victory in the election.
