The 2023 Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has formally submitted a single-tenure proposal to a coalition of opposition leaders led by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and former Senate President David Mark.

This was confirmed by Dr. Yunusa Tanko, Coordinator of the Obidient Movement.

Tanko who spoke at the sidelines of the conferment of a chieftaincy title, ‘Sarki Maskan’ (War Hero), on Obi, said the single-tenure proposal is to prioritize national development over prolonged political rivalries.

He stated: “We have presented it to the coalition. It is there for them to make a decision. But we are confident it can work. This is a pronouncement rooted in integrity, and Peter Obi embodies that. What Nigeria needs now are leaders with integrity.

“Obi has said clearly — even though the single term is not in the constitution — that he is committing himself to serve only one tenure. He believes four years is more than enough to accomplish his mission. That shows you how prepared and focused he is.

“Even stabilising electricity alone will solve a multitude of problems. He is promising that under his leadership, Nigeria will become an exporting country again. Planes will no longer leave our airports empty.”

The New Diplomat reports that this comes after Atiku, Mark, and some other heavyweight members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) as the official platform for the opposition coalition ahead of the 2027 General election.
