Former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi has declared he would serve only four years in office if elected president, insisting he would not stay a day longer even “with a gun to my head.”
Obi made the remark in a clip from an interview scheduled to air on News Central TV on Thursday.
“I want to be a one-term president because of stability. I would not stay a day, with a gun to my head, longer than four years,” he said.
The former Anambra State governor used the occasion to criticise the current administration’s economic policies, particularly heavy borrowing and the rising cost of living, describing the situation as one of Nigeria’s most difficult economic periods.
Obi, who came third in the 2023 presidential election behind President Bola Tinubu and Atiku Abubakar, has remained a vocal opposition figure, consistently criticising the Tinubu administration’s reforms.
