Peter Obi has said that there are more “Yahoo people” in government than there are outside of government.
The Presidential Candidate of Labour Party in the 2023 election said this in his keynote address as guest speaker at the 4th graduation ceremony of Nexford University.
The event was themed: “Lead the change; ignite your future.”
“For governance, don’t think when we talk about vices, it is only Yahoo boys. There are actually more Yahoo people in government than there are outside because we have turned the entire country into a crime scene where people inside are stealing and people outside are stealing,” Obi said, according to DailyTrust.
He also spoke about the qualities of good leadership and urged the graduates to become positive change agents in their communities.
He said: “It is about leadership and igniting the future. It is not rocket science but it is difficult. It is being able to have a strong character, the ability not to do the wrong thing.
“It is for you to help to bring a better change in that society that you want to live in. You have acquired knowledge today.Use what you have learnt to help us change society.”
“You are a victim of Nigeria because our age and the age before has refused to do what is right and you are suffering it,” he stressed.
