Nigeria Must Live Within Its Means – Peter Obi

Peter Obi

Peter Obi, former Governor of Anambra State and presidential hopeful has stated that Nigeria must transit from a consuming to a producing nation to pull her citizens out of poverty.

According to the main opposition party, the country must live within its means by cutting down on the cost of governance and investing in human capital development.

“I am saying the same thing to Nigerians for the general elections. We must live within our means in this country. That is what we need to do urgently to take our people out of poverty,” Obi said.

He added, “So we cannot allow our young people in their young age with the resources of this country to be living where they have no means of livelihood. That is what I want to do.

“That is why I said my basic function is to move the country from consumption to production. We have to change. No more sharing formula.

“I’m going to put the production formula in place. We must feed ourselves. We have enough land all over Nigeria for us to feed ourselves.”
