A former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi has reacted to the alleged ongoing enslavement of Nigerians and other Africans in Libya.
He said the news was not only sad but also troubling.
Speaking with newsmen at weekend shortly after addressing the conference, “Networking with the Giants,” organised by African Youths Entrepreneurs, in Lagos, Obi called for concerted efforts among Nigerian leaders on the Libyan issue, saying that such tragedy required Nigerians to have a re-think about the trajectory the country was headed to.
His words, “If you listened to my speech, you would see deliberate comparison of Nigeria with other countries of relative development trajectory in the 80’s and how those countries had all overtaken us, because of leadership failures of the past. What we are witnessing in Libya is part of the consequences of that failure. Such occurrences should be utilized by us to advise ourselves as a country that we must wake up and put this country on the right path to avoid implosion in the future.
Speaking further, the former governor called on those saddled with the responsibility of leadership to immediately commence real governance by doing those things that other nations did that took them out of the woods.
Obi called on the youth that dream of going to Europe by crossing the Mediterranean Sea via Libya to resolve to take back Nigeria for Nigerians by resisting being bought with money during elections.
