During the course of their meeting, the monarch asked Obi if he would remain clean if elected into power in 2023.

The Oba who told Obi that his reputation preceded him, said there were temptations in the presidency.

The LP standard bearer said if elected President, Nigerians would no longer go to bed hungry.“

It’s about you (the youths). With you, we will take back this country.

“We will stop people from looting the nation’s treasury. Labour Party will stop nepotism”, he promised.
