Peter Obi Urges Nigerians to Use their PVC to End Bad Leadership
Former Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi is once again stressing the importance of the Permanent Voter Card (PVC), calling it the true bridge to a new Nigeria. In a post on his X handle, the former presidential candidate urged Nigerians, young and old, to see their PVC as more than just a card but as a weapon of change.
According to him, the PVC is the voice of the voiceless, the shield for the weak, and the tool of the poor to challenge injustice and failed leadership. He encouraged citizens to get organised, register, collect their PVCs, and make election rigging difficult.
Obi warned against vote buying, describing it as a dangerous trap. He said politicians who buy votes are not showing kindness but investing in corruption, using stolen mandates to loot public funds meant for schools, hospitals, and jobs. Also, he likened such leaders to criminals, no different from armed robbers and kidnappers, because of the destruction they cause.
He also cautioned voters against selling their votes, saying it is not just selling an election but selling away opportunities that could uplift families from poverty. In addition, he pointed out that selling votes means trading away the hospitals that could save loved ones, the schools children deserve, and the jobs that bring dignity.
As Nigeria looks ahead to the 2027 elections, Obi called on citizens to take responsibility for building the country they dream of. He urged them to safeguard their PVCs and use them wisely, voting for leaders with competence, character, and compassion.
In essence, his message reminds Nigerians that the power to change the nation lies in their hands. “Nigeria belongs to the people, not to those who trade our future for their selfish gain,” he said.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
