Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP)
in the 2023 election, has called on workers to hold on to values that encourage
productivity.
Obi urged workers to see their jobs as channels for
contributing to nation-building, adding that Nigeria is blessed with a
hardworking workforce.
He encouraged the workers not to be weary as a result of the
economic and political challenges in the country.
The former Anambra governor spoke on Monday in commemoration
of Workers’ Day.
“I congratulate
Nigerian workers on the occasion of the Workers’ Day Celebration. I called on
them to hold onto the values that encourage productivity in the nation,” Obi
wrote on his Twitter page.
“I encouraged them to see their jobs as channels for
contributing to nation-building. Nigeria is gifted with a hardworking
workforce, desirous of the country’s development, and without minding poor
workers’ welfare in the nation, the workers have continued to labour for the
nation.
“I encouraged the workers not to be disheartened by the many
challenges that pervade the economic and political space of the nation today,
as everyone should remain focused on building a more productive and prosperous
nation, which are part of the offerings of the New Nigeria.
“I want to assure you
that the forces of darkness that have held this nation bound for long will not
continue to have their way. We are determined to take back our nation for good
and we are not giving up. I urge you all to remain steadfast.”
Obi noted that the “sun of justice, peace and development
will soon shine” on Nigeria.
