Remarks at a Press Conference by Mr. Peter Gregory Obi, CON Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party on The Supreme Court Judgment of 26th October, 2023 On the 2023 Nigeria Presidential ElectionHeld in Abuja, FCT, on [Monday 6th November, 2023Protocols,

1.Fellow countrymen and women. Gentlemen of the Media, Good day and welcome to this press conference.Kindly permit me to make some brief remarks on the recent ruling of the Supreme Court, the highest court in Nigeria.

2. About a fortnight ago, I was traveling abroad on a prior scheduled engagement when I received the notice that the Supreme Court would give judgment on Thursday 26th October 2023 on our challenge of the ruling of the Presidential Election Petitions Court (PEPC). That judgment has since been delivered as scheduled. The leadership of the Labour Party has already pronounced its position on the judgment.

3. As someone who has previously benefited from the rulings of the Supreme Court on electoral matters, I have, after a period of deep and sober reflection, decided to personally and formally react to the recent judgment as most Nigerians have. Because we are confronted with very weighty issues of national interest, I will speak forthrightly. As students young lads at CKC, Onitsha, we were taught values and admonished to always; “choose the harder right, instead of the easier wrong.”

4. Setting legal issues aside, the Supreme Court exhibited a disturbing aversion to public opinion just as it abandoned its responsibility as a court of law and policy. It is, therefore, with great dismay that I observe that the Court’s decision contradicts the overwhelming evidence of election rigging, false claim of a technical glitch, substantial non-compliance with rules set by INEC itself as well as matters of perjury, identity theft, and forgery that have been brought to light in the course of this election matter. These were hefty allegations that should not to be treated with levity. More appalling, the Supreme Court judgment willfully condoned breaches of the Constitution relative to established qualifications and parameters for candidates in presidential elections. With this counter-intuitive judgment, the Supreme Court has transferred a heavy moral burden from the courtrooms to our national conscience. Our young democracy is ultimately the main victim and casualty of the courtroom drama.

5. Without equivocation, this judgment amounts to a total breach of the confidence the Nigerian people have in our judiciary. To that extent, it is a show of unreasonable force against the very Nigerian people from whom the power of the Constitution derives. This Supreme Court ruling may represent the state of the law in 2023 but not the present demand for substantive justice. The judgment mixed principles and precepts. Indeed, the rationale and premise of the Supreme Court judgment, have become clearer in the light of the deep revealing and troubling valedictory remarks by Hon. Justice Musa Dattijo Muhammad, (JSC) on Friday 27th October 2023.

6. In disagreeing very strongly with the ruling of both the Presidential Petitions Court (PEPC) and the Supreme Court on the outcome of the 25th February 2023 Presidential election as declared by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), as democrats who believe in the rule of law, we recognize that the Supreme Court is the end stage of the quest for legal closure to the matter. As a party and as candidates, Datti and I have now exhausted all legal and constitutional remedies available to us. However, this end is only another beginning in our quest for the vindication of the hope of the common man for a better country. After all, sovereignty belongs to the people! If only for historical purposes, it behooves us to place our disagreement with and deep reservations about this judgment on public record.

7. We have long been aware of how weak national institutions have negatively affected our democracy. This year 2023 has been quite remarkable and revealing. INEC has displayed incompetence in the conduct of its statutory duty. The judiciary has largely acted in defiance of constitutional tenets, precedents, and established ground rules. Political expediency has preceded judicial responsibility. A mechanical application of technicalities has superseded the pursuit of justice and fairness. Both INEC and the Supreme Court as the referees, respectively shifted the goalposts in the middle of the game.

8. Where the value and import of the recent Supreme Court ruling ends is where our commitment to a New Nigeria begins. Our mission and mandate remain unchanged. From the very onset, our mission has been more about enthroning a new Nigeria. It is a new nation where things work, where the country is led from its present waste and consumption orientation to a production-driven economy. Our commitment is to a nation anchored on the principles of prudent management of resources to quickly pull millions out of multidimensional poverty, ensuring transparency and accountability in the equitable distribution of opportunities, resources, and privileges. In the new Nigeria, we aim to address all unmet needs by showing compassion for all those left behind by the present system.

9. Going forward, we in the Labour Party and the Obidient Movement are now effectively in opposition. We are glad that the nation has heard us loud and clear. We shall now expand the confines of our message of hope to the rest of the country. We shall meet the people in the places where they feel pain and answer their needs for hope. At marketplaces, motor parks, town halls, board rooms, and university and college campuses, we all carry and deliver the message of a new Nigeria. As stake holders and elected Labour Party officials, we shall remain loyal to our manifesto.We will continue to canvas for good governance and focus on issues that promote national interest, unity, and cohesion. We will continue to give primacy to our Constitution, the rule of law, and the protection of ordered liberties. We will offer the checks and balances required in a functional democracy and vie robustly in forthcoming elections to elect those who share our vision of a new Nigeria.

10. Given our present national circumstances, there is a compelling need for a strong political opposition. We shall, therefore, remain in opposition, especially because of the policies and the governance modalities that we in the Labour Party campaigned for, especially reducing the cost of governance, moving the nation from consumption to production, reducing inflation, ending insecurity, promoting the rule of law, guaranteeing the responsibility to protect, and stabilizing the Nigerian currency; are clearly not the priorities of the present administration nor is it interested in achieving Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

11. If there is one thing that has immensely gladdened my heart in the course of the struggle of the past 18 months, it is the passionate desire of our people, especially our young people from across ethnic and religious divides, to construct a new and restructured Nigeria that will work for all Nigerians. That goal remains my guiding light and abiding inspiration.

12. Finally, I thank all Nigerians who believed in what is now only a revolution postponed. We deeply appreciate the unalloyed non-partisan moral support millions of youth and ordinary Nigerians across ethnic, religious, and geopolitical divides have continued to give to Dr. Datti Baba-Ahmed and me.

13. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Nigerians who have supported this mission from the onset. We salute the leadership and members of the Labour Party, the Obidient Movement, the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Nigerians in the Diaspora, Support Groups, and all people of goodwill who worked diligently and hoped for the realization of the beginnings of a New Nigeria in this election cycle.

14. Nigerians who supported our cause have done so out of patriotism and their sincere conviction that our nation requires and deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead Nigeria toward a brighter future. The energy and dedication of Nigerian Youths and the Obedient Movement have been simply amazing. I appreciate and salute them! I want to assure them that this is not the end of our journey; but in fact, the beginning. Nigeria heard you. The world has taken note and will not forget so easily. We shall endure, persist, until we get to our destination because a new Nigeria is our destination. A destination not an event.

15. We thank, in a special way, our legal team. We also thank our elder States-Men, whose wise counsel were immeasurable To them, we wish to state unequivocally that this judicial outcome – an obvious misrepresentation of substantial justice – has by no means foreclosed the realization of a new Nigeria that is Possible.

16. On a personal note, I take personal pride and express gratitude to those who share our vision; and who have also exhibited rare courage to challenge the nefarious system, the genuineness of individuals’ identities and their defining and qualifying particulars up to the highest extent allowed by law. Nigeria holds out hope of infinite possibilities leading to our desirable greatness. I remain consistent in my belief in the possibility of a new Nigeria built on character competence, capacity, compassion, integrity, and respect for the rule of law based on justice and fairness.

17. God bless us all. God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Mr. Peter Gregory Obi, CON Presidential Candidate of Labour Party.

How We Are Revolutionising Public Transport In Enugu

Published

Governor Peter Mbah inaugurating the ultramodern Enugu Bus Terminals
Spread the love

By PETER MBAH

It is often said that when you arrive in a great city for the first time, before you see its tallest building or its finest restaurant, before you even hear its music or taste its food, you notice its transport system. The way a city moves tells you how it thinks, works, and cares for its people. In many ways, transport is the heartbeat of civilisation, and if the heartbeat is strong, the body thrives.

About two years ago, this location was practically a synonym for chaotic traffic and general disorderliness. Aside from the fact it constituted a major municipal blight, we knew we could not attain our audacious economic goals if we lacked an efficient public transport system that offered both comfort and dignity. We knew that our goal to make Enugu the most livable city in Nigeria will be a futile bid, if we were unable to tackle problems such as persistent traffic gridlock.

Governor Peter Mbah

So, from the very first day of this administration, we made a promise: to build a world-class transport system that moves people, connects businesses and communities, and, crucially, that rightfully positions Enugu State as a model of modern governance, sustainable growth, and human dignity.
Today’s commissioning of the newly completed world-class terminals and the CNG Bus Mass Transit Scheme is indeed, beyond a ribbon-cutting exercise. It ushers in a whole new experience; fundamentally connecting our vision to action, and our action to the daily lives of the over seven million residents of Enugu State. It is about ensuring the people commute in dignity and comfort.

It is a key part of our integrated five-terminal Transport Infrastructure Project’s Phase 1: Holy Ghost Terminal 1 (Enugu Central Station 1) – designated for interstate transport; Holy Ghost Terminal 2 (Enugu Central Station 2) for intercity transport; Gariki Terminal (Gariki Central Station); Abakpa Terminal (Abakpa Central Station); and Nsukka Terminal (Nsukka Central Station). Today, these terminals stand as inspiring reminders of the power of vision.

The Holy Ghost/Ogbete axis is the heartbeat of Enugu’s urban mobility. With over 50% of the city’s commuter traffic passing through here daily, its transformation signals our commitment to world-class standards. By modernising the area, we are creating a downtown experience that will anchor business, tourism, and urban renewal. The completion of these facilities teaches us that true development might yield some discomfort. But it always creates an outcome that benefits all.

Alongside the CNG Rapid Bus Service (Mass Transit Scheme), these terminals are central pillars of our transport agenda – a multimodal highway to the future – integrating road, rail, air, and waterways into one seamless, safe, and efficient ecosystem.

With regard to roads, we have rehabilitated, built and expanded critical routes, improved junctions, and opened new corridors that connect communities and markets.

In aviation, we have launched Enugu Air and secured strategic partnerships to strengthen our position as a regional aviation hub.

We have advanced discussions in rail to reconnect Enugu State to the regional and national rail grids for cheaper, faster freight and passenger movement.

With waterways, we are exploring viable inland water transport routes to boost trade and tourism.

The thrill that these projects give is beyond sheer aesthetic delight. They are engines of economic revival. They represent our capacity to deliver projects that empower Ndi Enugu and set our state on a robust trajectory of growth.

Our vision for these projects was clear: to create a modern, integrated transport system that will spur economic growth, create jobs, and improve the overall standard of living. By enhancing connectivity within Enugu State and beyond, we are laying the foundation for a more vibrant and competitive economy. This will, ultimately, make Enugu a gateway to economic opportunities.

Last month, we witnessed the inaugural flight of Enugu Air, a significant economic enabler conceived to move us closer to the goal of making Enugu the premier destination for investment, living, and tourism in Nigeria.

Infrastructure, particularly transport, remains a catalyst for economic transformation. From the farmer in Nsukka to the trader in Ogbete, from the manufacturer in Emene to the investor in Enugu CBD, opportunities will multiply.


Already, this project is creating jobs, stimulating SMEs, and positioning Enugu to compete with Africa’s best. Through it, we are creating over 20,000 jobs across BRT, 2,000 hybrid city taxis, airport operations, ride-hailing and support services.

This CNG rollout begins with the first 100 buses serving our markets and neighbourhoods, especially for all Enugu students, because our state is a city of universities, polytechnics, and colleges.
Dedicated routes will connect campuses with major residential and commercial areas, ensuring a safer, more reliable, and more affordable travel for students.

With special student discounts, as well as reduced fares for the elderly and young children, we are making sure our transport system is inclusive, equitable, and supportive of education. Remarkably, this will reduce transport costs for the average family by over 40%.

Comfort and safety are irreducible minimums on which modern public transport is built. Our multi-modal transport system ticks all the boxes. The way a city organises its transport, to a large extent indicates how it organises its society.

In Enugu, we are showing the world that we value safety, order, and accountability. We have carried out a state-wide biometric capture of commercial vehicle owners and drivers. This initiative has strengthened our data intelligence, making it easier to identify and track operators, and has already contributed to reducing transport-related crimes.

We have integrated our transport system into the State’s security framework. The Command and Control Centre, equipped with surveillance cameras installed in strategic locations across Enugu, ensures that our streets, terminals, and junctions remain under constant watch — providing both a guide and a guard for our people.

Our cashless e-ticketing system eliminates leakages, guarantees transparency, and ensures every payment is accounted for. Commuters simply need to purchase a ticket and top-up as they find suitable. Remarkably, a single valid ticket grants the holder access to other buses.

Again, our comprehensive insurance coverage protects both the assets and the people who use them. Our 80 bus shelters (to be clearly marked with arrival time), lay-bys, and junction improvement projects mean passengers and commuters travel with more comfort, dignity, and safety.

I am proud to announce that Enugu is the first State in Nigeria to proactively adopt and implement a State Climate Action Policy in line with national and global goals. The CNG Mass Transit Scheme we commission today is a major step in that direction – cutting carbon emissions, reducing dependence on petrol, and lowering transport costs for Ndi Enugu. We are proving that environmental responsibility and economic growth can complement each other.

There is often a common flaw in our nature as humans; it is the tendency to quickly forget the previous state of things once situations improve. Building these facilities required grit, sacrifice, painstaking patience, collaboration and support.
These projects would not have been possible, barring the bold decision taken by His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, to remove oil subsidies. This policy – and several other well-thought actions – has ensured that developments such as we are witnessing was possible. It is indeed remarkable that the President understands that much of the economic activities that will spur Nigeria into a $1 trillion economy would come from the states.
He has demonstrated this, through the recent launch of the WARD Development Project, an idea conceived to create 8.8 million jobs across the 8,800 wards in Nigeria. It is obvious His Excellency, the President is committed to grassroots development – just as we are in Enugu State.

Through words and deeds, the President has demonstrated a sincere love and support towards Enugu’s and indeed the South East’s progress. An example is the concession of the Akanu Ibiam International Airport, which would clearly re-position Enugu as an aviation and economic hub. So, we commend the President, and will continue to support him and the Federal Government, because no administration has given as much support to the sub-nationals as this President has done.
This is also an auspicious moment to thank Mr. President for his recent appointment of one of our sons as the Vice Chancellor of the University of Nigeria, Nsukka.

I wish to acknowledge and thank, as well: the transport operators, unions, market leaders and the business community. And all good men and women, who responded to the call for development, and partnered with the State to see the success of today.

I should also commend the Commissioner for Transport and his team for their hardwork and resilience. Change is never easy, but the benefits are often generally felt. Today, as we commission these terminals, we recommit to our promise: to build modern, efficient systems that serve the people, unlock economic potential, and extend the frontiers of development.

Our Transport Infrastructure Project is a legacy that will be remembered by future generations as one of several turning points in the history of Enugu State. This moment is about the Enugu of tomorrow; it reflects our resolve to grow our economy seven-fold. This is what enabling environment looks like.
We will continue to build and deliver world-class infrastructure. And together, we will make Enugu a premier destination with global reckoning.

Tomorrow is here!

A Call for Urgent Action As Idah – Nsukka Road is Flooded, Abandoned and Plagued by Kidnapping

Published

on

Spread the love

The Idah–Nsukka road corridor, a critical link between Kogi and Enugu states, has long served farmers, traders, students at Federal Government College Ugwolawo, College of Health Sciences and Technology Idah, Federal Polytechnic Idah, the University of Nigeria Nsukka, and countless families. Awarded in the mid-1990s to shorten the Enugu–Abuja journey by more than two hours, this 90-kilometer route today stands as a stark emblem of neglect. Flooding, failing drainage and bridges, and rising kidnap and banditry threats along a route that should be safe are creating an escalating humanitarian and security emergency that requires urgent, coordinated action from all levels of government.

– Comrade Opaluwa Eleojo Simeon

CURRENT REALITY ON GROUND

Flooded corridors and decaying infrastructure:
After heavy rains, key segments of the Idah–Nsukka axis—such as Abolinyangnyanga, Egabada, Oforachi, and other points—become impassable. Roads wash away, drainage systems overflow, bridges deteriorate or collapse, and water points become compromised. Passengers are sometimes carried on shoulders to cross flooded sections.

Security threats and insecurity:
Along stretches of the corridor, residents report a troubling rise in kidnappings and related crimes. The region has become a hotspot for kidnapping, making the route one of the most dangerous in Kogi State. Flood-driven displacement combined with fear disrupts schooling, commerce, and daily life, forcing businesses to close and families to seek precarious shelter. The popular Egabada market has become a shadow of itself.

Service-delivery bottlenecks:
Because authorities have neglected the road, primary health-care centers, schools, and water facilities along the route become hard to reach during floods, creating gaps in care, education, and sanitation. Local data and casualty figures remain fragmented, complicating timely response.

Cross-border governance gaps:
The Idah–Nsukka road crosses state boundaries and should benefit from seamless cooperation among Kogi State, Enugu State, and federal agencies. Fragmented coordination has slowed relief, repairs, and protective measures.

• Screen capture of young men conveying motorcycles across the flooded road for a fee of N2,000 .

CAUSES 

Climate and terrain:

The corridor sits in flood-prone terrain with inadequate drainage and aging infrastructure unable to cope with heavy rainfall and rising river levels.

Maintenance and funding shortfalls:

Routine maintenance has lagged; emergency and reconstruction funding has not matched the scale of needs. The Federal Ministry of Works and Housing has effectively turned a blind eye to this crucial road.

Security and protection gaps:

A lack of a predictable, well-coordinated security presence in high-risk sections leaves communities vulnerable to crime during floods and displacement.

Coordination and accountability: Multiple agencies at federal and state levels operate with limited data sharing and joint planning, hindering rapid, transparent decision-making.

Economic vulnerability:

Heavy reliance on rain-fed farming and fragile livelihoods increases exposure to flood damage and security shocks.

URGENT ACTION NEEDED

Declare and mobilize emergency response:

Officially designate the Idah–Nsukka corridor as disaster-affected and activate a multisector emergency plan led by state authorities with federal support where appropriate. Fast-track funding and procurement for relief, reconstruction, and protection.

Ensure rapid relief and civilian protection:

Establish secure relief centers with food, clean water, WASH, medical care, and psychosocial support; create safe corridors for aid delivery; deploy protective measures to shield civilians from kidnapping and violence.

Restore mobility and critical infrastructure:

Accelerate emergency repairs to roads, bridges, and drainage; speed up dredging and riverbank stabilization; ensure water supply and sanitation services function during floods.

Strengthen security and community protection:

Deploy coordinated security patrols along vulnerable routes; strengthen reporting channels and link with traditional authorities and civil society groups for early warnings and protective actions.

Data, coordination, and accountability:

Commission an immediate rapid needs assessment; form a joint federal–state task force with clear milestones; provide quarterly progress briefings and publish updates; establish an Idah–Nsukka Citizens’ Forum to ensure local voices inform decisions.

Build long-term resilience:

Develop a corridor-wide master plan for flood risk reduction, climate adaptation, and disaster-risk financing; diversify livelihoods beyond rain-fed farming; implement climate-resilient designs in all repairs and new works.

• Locals reaping from stranded passengers and commercial cyclists on the Idah – Nsukka federal road.

ROLES FOR GOVERNMENT AND PARTNERS

Kogi State: Lead the multisector response at the state level, coordinate with Enugu State authorities where cross-border issues arise, and manage relief logistics.

Enugu State (Nsukka area) and federal agencies: Support infrastructure repairs, flood defenses, drainage improvements, and cross-border coordination. Provide technical and funding backing where housing and public works intersect with flood resilience.

NEMA and security agencies: Participate in relief, protection, and service continuity; share data to inform decisions; help secure aid delivery and affected communities.

Local communities and civil society: Engage in planning, monitoring, and feedback to ensure interventions are culturally appropriate and trusted.

CONCLUSION

The abandoned Idah–Nsukka road is not merely a transportation ministry problem; it embodies climate vulnerability, governance gaps, and security risks that affect thousands of families, farmers, traders, and students. I urge the Kogi State Government and the Federal Ministry of Works and Housing, in partnership with Enugu State authorities and security agencies, to act with urgency: declare the corridor a disaster region, mobilize resources, repair and protect critical infrastructure, bolster civilian protection, and establish transparent mechanisms to monitor progress. The time to act is now—lives and livelihoods depend on it, as does the economic and social fabric of the communities that rely on this essential link.

JAPA: Dangers of Illegal Migration from Africa to Europe and How to Curb It

Published

on

Spread the love

THE ADVOCATE Editorial Insights 

Illegal migration from Africa to Europe remains a pressing issue as thousands of young Africans risk their lives in search of better opportunities. While economic hardship, political instability, and lack of opportunities push people to leave, the dangers of illegal migration are often underestimated. This article delves deeper into the dangers of illegal migration and outlines practical ways to curb this growing trend.

The Dangers of Illegal Migration

1.Deadly Transit Routes

Illegal migrants often take perilous routes, such as crossing the Sahara Desert or the Mediterranean Sea.

•Sahara Desert: Temperatures in the desert can exceed 50°C, leading to dehydration and death. Many migrants die from exhaustion, lack of water, or attacks by bandits.

•Mediterranean Sea: Migrants board overcrowded and unseaworthy boats, often leading to capsizing. According to the International Organization for Migration (IOM), over 2,000 deaths were recorded in the Mediterranean in 2024 alone.

•Physical abuse.

•Forced labor.

•Sexual exploitation, particularly for women and girls.

3.Detention and Deportation

Upon arrival, many illegal migrants are detained in overcrowded detention centers. These centers are often described as inhumane, with reports of physical abuse and lack of basic necessities. Some are deported back to their home countries, often in worse conditions than when they left.

4.Economic and Emotional Consequences

•For Migrants: The financial burden of illegal migration leaves many families in debt, as they sell properties to fund their loved ones’ journeys.

•For Families: Families left behind often face emotional trauma, especially when they lose loved ones to the journey.

•For Communities: The loss of young, able-bodied individuals contributes to brain drain, stifling economic growth in Africa.

5.Discrimination and Marginalization in Europe

Illegal migrants face cultural barriers, discrimination, and exploitation in Europe. Without legal status, they often take low-paying jobs under poor working conditions, struggling to survive in foreign lands.

How to Curb Illegal Migration

1.Addressing Root Causes

African governments must tackle the factors driving migration:

•Job Creation: Investing in industries like agriculture, technology, and manufacturing can create job opportunities for young people.

•Education and Skills Development: Equipping youth with marketable skills can reduce the allure of migration.

•Good Governance: Addressing corruption, ensuring political stability, and protecting human rights can make Africa a more livable continent.

2.Public Awareness Campaigns

Governments, media outlets, and NGOs should educate citizens on:

•The dangers of illegal migration.

•The realities of life in Europe for undocumented migrants.

•The importance of pursuing legal migration options.

3.Strengthening Border Controls and Cooperation

African and European governments must collaborate to:

•Combat human trafficking networks.

•Improve border security to reduce illegal crossings.

•Develop frameworks for legal migration, including work visas and student exchanges.

4.Promoting Local Opportunities

International organizations can partner with African nations to support initiatives such as:

•Entrepreneurship training and funding.

•Access to microloans for small businesses.

•Encouraging the African diaspora to invest in their home countries.

5.Enhancing Regional Collaboration

Regional bodies like the African Union (AU) and ECOWAS can:

•Develop policies that promote economic integration.

•Encourage intra-Africa migration to create opportunities within the continent.

Conclusion

Illegal migration from Africa to Europe is a complex issue with devastating consequences. While the pursuit of greener pastures is natural, the risks of unplanned and illegal migration far outweigh the potential benefits. Governments, communities, and individuals must work together to create opportunities at home and educate young people about safer, legal alternatives.

Africa’s strength lies in its youth. By investing in them and addressing migration challenges, the continent can unlock its vast potential and pave the way for a brighter future.
