The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has vowed to restore the rule of law in Nigeria if elected in the 2023 general elections.

Obi, who spoke during the LP presidential campaign rally in Bayelsa State, which was held at the Oxbow Lake Pavilion in Yenagoa on Friday, said that citizens would no longer be harrased by the police and other security agencies.

According to him, the responsibility of the government is to cater to the poor.

Obi said, “The purpose of government is to care for the poor. Datti and I have said we will secure and unite Nigeria. We will make sure that Nigerians are governed by the rule of law. The were will no more police harassment. Police will no longer harass students for having laptops.

“We are promising what we are going to do. All those people have been promising you a lot and they have not delivered anything.

” Next year, we are going to have an election that will not be based on tribe; we are going to have an election that will not be based on religion; we are going to have an election that will not be by my turn. It is the turn of Nigerians to take back their country. It is the turn of Nigerian youths to take back their country.”

He said the Federal Government had allegedly treated Bayelsa unfairly despite the fact that it was the place the country’s oil wealth was first struck, adding that the government “abandoned” the state during the 2022 flood disaster.
