Former governor of Anambra state and a presidential aspirant under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Obi, is hopeful that he will emerge as the party’s consensus candidate for the 2023 general election

He said he had the criteria as one of the world economic and social-political leader to tackle the current economic crisis tearing the nation apart.

Obi spoke at the weekend at his Onitsha home after receiving the expression of interest and nomination forms from a group of professionals.

The ex-Anambra State governor, who said he would formally declare for the presidential race in the coming days, added that the first thing he would do, if elected, would be to bring back trust in governance.

He said his manifesto, which he would be committed to, would be made public during the declaration, hoping that his party would present the best hand to rescue the country from its present quagmire.

Said he: “Although PDP presidential aspirants are already discussing how to present an acceptable candidate that will carry the party’s flag for the election, emphasis is on who is best suited for the job because of the enormity of problems facing the country.

“The presidential aspirants are not saying the consensus is for a particular section of the country. They might be talking of consensus for the whole Nigeria. So, we are going around, interacting with people and discussing everything.
