Former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi has criticised what he described as the growing tolerance of questionable or unverified academic credentials in positions of leadership. Obi argued that the issue should not be treated as a matter of political loyalty or personal support, but as a question of standards, accountability and the values Nigeria wants to uphold. He warned that excusing blurred, missing or unverified credentials because they belong to political allies could create a dangerous precedent for the country. According to Obi, normalising the abandonment of basic credential verification could eventually allow people without the required qualifications to occupy positions such as professors, doctors or judges. He said Nigeria must build a society where truth is not determined by political affiliation and where standards and accountability apply equally to everyone. Obi urged Nigerians to choose truth over convenience, standards over sentiment and the country’s long-term future over political expediency, arguing that a better Nigeria can only be built when citizens are willing to uphold the right principles even when doing so is inconvenient. 👉 Follow Daily Times Nigeria for more updates. #PeterObi# #Nigeria# #News# #NigeriaPolitics# #DailyTimesNigeria#

“Peter Obi called me today for the first time. I love Obi. Nobody can see into a man’s heart because the heart of man is desperately wicked. But I am not one of them.” — Isaac Fayose

Not Peter Obi showing concern for the welfare of Nigerian soldiers, when during his tenure as a governor doctors went on a 13 month prolonged strike; It was also reported that teachers also embarked on a strike, because his govt was reluctant to implement and pay the new minimum wage back then. But all of a sudden he's concerned about govt employees? OK.
