RE: SENATOR ROCHAS OKOROCHA’S REMARKS ON PETER OBI’S SINGLE-TERM COVENANT
We have reviewed Senator Rochas Okorocha’s comments on Channels Television’s Politics Today.
We accept his description of Peter Obi as “a fantastic gentleman; clear in his head.” On the claim that a single term is “a four-year gambling,” we respectfully disagree.
Section 135(2) of the 1999 Constitution provides that a President shall leave office after four years and may seek a further four years. In law, “may” is permissive, not mandatory. A single term is therefore constitutional. It is not a gamble.
Nigeria already tested an eight-year tenure between 2015 and 2023. The result was rising inflation, a weakened naira, soaring public debt, widespread poverty, and insecurity across the country. That is the real balance sheet of prolonged tenure without performance.
Peter Obi’s offer is a performance bond, not a gamble. He has pledged to serve one term, to be judged strictly by results, and to hand over power in 2031 in recognition that it is the turn of the North. This is sacrifice for national stability.
Leadership is measured by impact, not duration. Nigeria’s problem has never been insufficient time. It has been the repeated failure to use time well. Mr. Obi proposes to reverse that culture: one term dedicated entirely to delivery.
When a man entitled to eight years voluntarily chooses four and invites the nation to judge him by results, he is not gambling. He is sacrificing.
This is not a gamble. It is a rescue mission with a deadline.

ENUGU SHOWED UP!🔥
What a remarkable day for Enugu and the future of our nation!
It was an honour for Princess Ada Ogbu Nara to join other NDC faithfuls and the good people of Enugu State in welcoming His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi, and Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso for a memorable town hall meeting and youth engagement.
Seeing Ndi Enugu, young and old, turn out with such enthusiasm, hope and determination was truly inspiring.
Thank you, Ndi Enugu, for showing up and making this gathering a success.
A New Nigeria Is POssible! 🇳🇬

As Governor of Kano, His Excellency, Sen. Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso transformed the State. The OK ticket is indeed a powerful one.
Notice how they're both education focused? Share this far and wide!
@sowore@NigeriaNDCHQ@PeterObi You are quick to call people names but when you were called a tout you immediately crashed out and started yelling like a spoilt child ✌️
I don't have a problem with people posting my NDC videos whether or not they give me credit. But I have a problem when the NDC logo I put there is covered.
I intentionally don't add my watermark to these videos. Covering the NDC logo defeats the entire purpose.
I didn't commit resources to making these just for people to get angry; it is for them to see why they should vote the OK ticket under the NDC.
Merci
“No allow anybody lie give you say Igbos wan vote Peter Obi because he is Igbo….
It’s a lie; see the way Igbos voted since 1999….”
— Real__pok clears the air on tribalistic tag on Igbos.
Never allow the privilege of serving in a prominent ministry to convince you that you have become more important to GOD than believers who serve HIM faithfully in ordinary places.
Over ₦10 trillion spent on power since 2013, and the grid still collapses.
A meter on your wall is not light in your room.
“We’ll fix the grid, not just the paperwork,” and the megawatts actually delivered will be published. The problem is a failure of leadership, and a determined leader will go there and solve it."
- H.E Peter Obi
Join the movement.
Deliver your 20.
Vote Obi and Kwankwaso and together we will make Nigeria OK.
