Peter Obi delivers a powerful response to recent criticisms and resignations from the Labour Party, emphasizing the importance of humility, patience, and integrity in leadership. Obi’s message aims to redefine power and greatness in Nigerian politics.
In a heartfelt conversation with Dr. Moses Paul, Peter Obi, the former Labour Party (LP) Presidential candidate, responded to recent resignations from the party, including that of Kenneth Okonkwo. Obi emphasized the virtues of humility, patience, and integrity in leadership, calling on his followers to adopt these principles in their political journey.
“Kenneth, Balami, and others remain my beloved younger brothers,” Obi began, expressing hope that they would eventually realize the importance of doing things in a peaceful manner. He lamented the prevalent culture of “rascality and forcefully doing things” in Nigeria, where loud boasts and aggressive actions are often mistaken for power or greatness.
Obi argued that true greatness lies in “quiet confidence, humility, and a commitment to excellence.” He called for a shift in mindset, urging Nigerians to value integrity, patience, and perseverance. “We must shift our mindset and recognize that true greatness lies not in loud boasts or aggressive actions, but in quiet confidence, humility, and a commitment to excellence,” he said.
Reflecting on the journey with the Labour Party, Obi noted that the party had spent the first year on campaigns, elections, and court proceedings. “And now, I am expected to become a superman, scattering everything and achieving instant results,” he remarked, highlighting the unrealistic expectations placed on him.
Expressing gratitude for the patience and understanding of his supporters, the Obidients, Obi urged them to be the example they wish to see in society. He reassured them that “doing the right thing is not a sign of weakness. Humility and patience are virtues, not weaknesses.” Obi encouraged his followers to walk the path of integrity and perseverance together, promising that their efforts would be worth it in the end.
Obi concluded his message with a commitment to the long journey ahead, saying, “I am committed to it. I encourage the Obidients to do the same – let us walk this path together, with faith and perseverance. We will get there, and our efforts will be worth it in the end.”
Obi’s response to the recent resignations and criticisms serves as a powerful reminder of the values needed to build a more just, equitable, and prosperous Nigeria. His call for humility, patience, and integrity resonates as a guiding principle for leadership in Nigerian politics.
