Why I Won’t Probe Past Administrations If Elected – Peter Obi | READ DETAILS
Mr. Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP), has said that hw would not investigate the activities of past administrations if elected come 2023.
Addressing newsmen on Friday, after the formal unveiling of Senator Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed as his running mate, Obi maintained that he will not engage in witch hunting but focus on the job.
“As for probing the past government, let me tell you: you see me argue that you can’t close your shop and be chasing thieves, those who only look at yesterday and today will miss tomorrow. God did not give us eyes at the back, mine is to look forward.
“If you come into the government today and decide to stop the leakage first, you will get more. I am not going to be part of any form of victimisation or witch-hunt, it won’t happen. Nigerians must live within law and order.
“But I can tell you right away. If you, the principal person, the local government chairman, the governor or the President are not stealing, your family is not, and those around you are not, you will reduce it by 70 per cent.”
