Former President Olusegun Obasanjo says he will not be on the campaign train of Peter Obi, despite his endorsement of the Labour Party presidential candidate in a new year letter to Nigerians.
The former president said this on Thursday at a virtual engagement organised by the Africa Leadership Group.
After his endorsement of Mr Obi’s bid, Mr Obasanjo faced criticism from the major opponents of the LP presidential candidate.
But on Thursday he said: “I am not on the campaign train. I have used the benefit of my experience and put things plainly.
“I do not belong to any political party. I will not join any campaign train. I have said what is best for the country.”
Mr Obasanjo said he believes that the bane of Nigeria’s problems is leadership.
“Nigeria is where we are because of leadership,” he said.
“We must decisively look for men and women who have the character, attributes, skill and attitude that we need for leadership, that will deliver in this country.”
