In a recent announcement on his social media platform, Peter Obi, the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, expressed his gratitude for being honored as the Political Icon of the Year 2023 by The Sun Awards.
Despite his usual reluctance to accept awards amid the nation’s challenges, Obi emphasized the significance of this recognition in celebrating individuals making substantial contributions towards realizing the Nigerian dream.
Obi’s dedication of the award to the impoverished Nigerians resonates deeply, highlighting the plight of those facing uncertainty about their next meal. He extended appreciation to fellow Nigerians, particularly the youth, for their unwavering belief in their shared mission for a better Nigeria.
Emphasizing that his political journey is dedicated to building a more equitable society, Obi urged unity across tribal, religious, and party lines. Despite setbacks in the 2023 elections, he called for collective action to transcend the barriers of bad governance and work towards actualizing the vision of a New Nigeria.
