Supporters of the Labour Party’s (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, flocked to the streets of Abuja on Saturday to clean up in order to win voters ahead of the 2023 general elections.
This comes only hours after Obi visited with vendors at Wuse’s famed Banex Plaza.
A large crowd greeted the former governor of Anambra State at the plaza’s entrance as he hosted a town hall meeting with students from the University of Abuja.

A group of supporters from the Prof. Pat Utomi-led Big Tent Independent Obi-Datti campaign Organization travelled to areas of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) yesterday to win the hearts of the inhabitants through a cleaning exercise in partnership with the Obi-Datti movement.
Speaking on behalf of the group, Dr Austin Kemie, Secretary General of the Big Tent, said the event, like several others being hosted around the country, was intended to educate Nigerians about their options before they arrive on February 25th.
“We are here to announce to the nation, we are here to announce to everyone, men and women, brothers and sisters, that the time has come for us to own our nation, the time has come for us to retrieve Nigeria, to repossess Nigeria,” Kemie said.
Addressing journalists on what makes the candidate of the Labour Party different from his counterparts, Kemie said: “I want to give this illustration, please put our candidate and his opponents on a scale of preference, look at the antecedents of these candidates, my candidate Peter Obi and look at the candidates of other candidates from other political parties.

“Look at their antecedents. If these candidates are banks, for example, you that is asking me this question where are you going to bank your money? So, we are talking about antecedents of integrity in our own candidate; you can see what is going on with other candidates between the controversies surrounding these candidates of our rival parties.
“You can see all the confusion, accusations and counter-accusations. Did you see any of these controversies surrounding our candidate?
“There is nothing like that; they will tell you that Nigerians are tired of corruption. We want to clean up corruption from this country, we are going to clean up nepotism from this country, and we want a man who has a clean record of superintending over the affairs of Nigeria going forward.”
