As the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protest enters the second day across the country, the Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 general election, Peter Obi, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to address the nation and douse the tension in the land.
Reacting to the protest and the demands of the protesters from his home in Onitsha, Anambra State, Obi said the president should address the nation and attend to the legitimate demands of the people.
Referencing the video showing he was in Abuja on day one, the former Anambra State governor said: “I am here in Onitsha; I can’t be here and be in Abuja.”
On the demands of the protesters, Obi said they were legitimate but insisted they must be pursued within the law.
“My appeal is for the President to come out and address the nation, he is the one the people elected, holding their mandate, and he should not be using aides or appointees to reach the people at such critical times,” he said.
Obi also extended his condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in the protest, as well as the injured and those who lost their property.
