Peter Obi Reveals How Being In The Opposition Of The Current Government Has Affected Him (Video)

Peter Obi, the Labour Party's presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, has opened up about the daily challenges of being an opposition figure in Nigeria, revealing that he has made personal sacrifices as a result.

Speaking during a media chat on Thursday in Abuja, Obi said; “Oppositions here are actually difficult. If I tell you what I face, what I go through, what my family goes through, you wouldn’t even believe I should still be standing and going around this country,” Obi said.

“It is difficult to be in opposition in this country, extremely difficult because everything is against you. People don’t even want to see you. They don’t even want to talk to you.”

“I see colleagues, I greet them at the airport, they don’t even want to reply because they don’t want the government of the day to see them greeting you. Your businesses, everything you’re involved in is being dismantled,” he lamented

“I’ve made up my mind that if this is the end, so be it. We need to show more commitment to the future of our country. None of us is going to live here forever. Everybody who means well should come together to get the country to work,” he urged.
