The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, during a media briefing at the Chatham House, in London revealed how he would end agitations by groups such as the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Yoruba Nation etc.
While responding to a question regarding secessionist groups like IPOB and Yoruba Nation agitators, Obi promised to dialogue with the agitators stating that nothing is wrong with doing so.
said: “When 40 per cent of your population is unemployed, there will be all sorts of problems which is what caused this agitation and this is as a result of leadership failure over the years and once there is good leadership; these problems will be solved.
“So, yes, I will talk and speak with all agitators.”
On other issues, Peter Obi vowed to remove fuel subsidies and prosecute those working against the country’s power sector.
