365Daily – The National leader of Labour Party (LP) and the party’s presidential flag bearer in the 2023 election, Peter Obi, is set to begin a three day tour to three cities in the United States of America.
A statement signed by the spokesman of Peter Obi Media Reach (POMR), Ibrahim Umar, on Wednesday, October 23, 2024, said the tour will begin on Thursday the 24th, 25th, and 26th of October 2024, and will be undertaken in the three cities of Houston, TX, Los Angeles, CA, and Atlanta, GA.
It is in continuation of his interactions with Nigerians in the Diaspora and in keeping with his avowed determination to lead the search for a new Nigeria.
The tour will be the last leg of his North America Appreciation visits that had earlier taken him to Toronto, Canada; Boston, MA; New York City, NY; West Orange, N; Cherry, N; Dallas, TX; Charlotte, NC; and Detroit, MI.
Umar added, ”The tour is also to underscore Mr Obi’s commitment during the 2023 electioneering to consistently engage the Nigeria Diaspora and interact with them constructively in the nation-building debate for the creation of a new Nigeria.”
He added that the former Anambra governor will also use the tour ”to sustain, by example, a new narrative where, unlike before, politicians only visit the national population when seeking their votes and support but hardly returns after elections to show appreciation.”
”The tours will be mostly interactive to provide Obi the opportunity to once again, through questions and answers, unveil his mission for a new Nigeria that is Possible and to also react to the unpalatable state of the nation.
”The former Anambra State Governor remains ever grateful to Nigerians at home and abroad who continue to show unwavering support and trust in him morally, materially, and financially during the 2023 presidential elections,” he added.
