The 2027 presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Peter Obi, says he is the only candidate that the North celebrates.
Obi expressed the confidence on Thursday while fielding questions during an interview on Arise Television’s Morning Show.
He also outlined his strategic vision for addressing poverty and economic instability in Northern Nigeria.
Obi said his proposed plan would focus on non-corrupt governance and leveraging national assets, particularly through robust investment in agriculture.

“If there’s one presidential candidate who the North celebrates, it’s me.
“This is because I know the problems that are happening in the North. I will deal with the issue of poverty the way it has not been dealt with before and in a non-corrupt way.
“Another asset I will look into is agriculture. We’ll invest in it. We’ll give the subsidy in it. We will ensure that we take all the almajiris back to education and support them in different areas.”
