The Labour Party, LP, national youth leader, Prince Kennedy
Ahanotu, has written an open letter to former President Olusegun Obasanjo in
appreciation for endorsing the party’s candidate, Peter Obi, for the
forthcoming poll.
Obasanjo had on Sunday declared the former Anambra governor
as his preferred presidential candidate for the February election.
The endorsement has generated reactions from the ruling All
Progressives Congress, APC, and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, attacking
the ex-president for ignoring their presidential candidates.
In a letter of appreciation, the LP youth leader opined that
the endorsement by Obasanjo has energized the Nigerian youths to take back
their country from greedy politicians.
Mr Kennedy, who lamented that the APC government had imposed
hardship on the Nigerian youths for the past seven years, vowed that they would
enforce change during the coming election.
The letter reads in part, “I am pleased to inform you that
we are further motivated, inspired, encouraged, re-energized, united,
resolutely committed to stand up and take our future in our hands.
“It is always emboldening when a father stands in support of
his children to succeed. Your letter to Nigerians, especially youths, is enough
to spur us to stand for our right and to vote without being bias along
ethno-religious lines.
“With renewed energy and God being our helper we shall make
a statement come February general election by massively supporting and voting
Labour Party’s candidate – Mr Peter Gregory Obi and Senator Datti Baba-Ahmed as
we join hand together to build a prosperous nation where peace, equity,
justice, credibility and excellence reigns”.
