Peter Obi has urged young Nigerians to take greater responsibility for nation-building while warning against tribal politics.
Peter Obi has argued that it is unfair for young and able-bodied Nigerians to place the burden of building a better nation on the shoulders of 84-year-old cleric Pastor Adeboye.
According to Obi, the responsibility of national development should not rest primarily on elderly leaders and public figures when younger generations possess the capacity to contribute meaningfully to the country’s progress.
His remarks were accompanied by a warning against tribal politics, a subject that continues to feature prominently in discussions about Nigeria’s political future and social cohesion.
The comments draw attention to broader questions about civic responsibility, leadership participation and the role citizens can play in shaping the country’s direction beyond ethnic or sectional considerations.
Obi’s position reinforces calls for greater public engagement and a focus on national unity in addressing the challenges facing the country.
