Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential candidate Peter Obi says Nigeria can achieve the “nation of our dreams” by raising a new generation of responsible and visionary leaders committed to selfless service and good governance. In posts on his Facebook page after engaging with students of Madonna University in Okija, Anambra State, Obi frames leadership as the main factor shaping a nation’s progress. He says the students’ questions reflect widespread frustrations among young Nigerians, particularly related to poor governance and corruption, which he argues have limited opportunities and prevented people from realising their potential. Obi also says the interactive session showed students’ optimism and determination to contribute to national development. He adds that effective leadership requires character, competence, capacity and compassion, alongside a willingness to make sacrifices for the public good. According to Obi, future leaders should focus on protecting lives, investing in education, creating opportunities and building stronger institutions. The sources present his remarks as a call for leadership-focused reforms to support a more prosperous Nigeria.
