Africa-Press – Nigeria. The 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, says loving Nigeria means promoting free and fair elections, as well as rejecting vices like corruption, greed and division.
Obi said this on Saturday via his verified X handle as he sends Valentine message to Nigerians, stressing that the country needs love in action.
He said that Saint Valentine is a reminder that love is not just emotion but sacrifice, discipline, and commitment to what is right — honesty, compassion, respect, and devotion to the common good.
“My dear young people of Nigeria. This Valentine’s Day, let us celebrate with responsibility.
“To all Nigerians, let us renew our love for one another and our nation. Like a living being, a country flourishes when nurtured with care and dedication.
“Loving Nigeria means promoting fair elections, rejecting vices like corruption, greed, division, and mediocrity, and supporting only those with capacity, commitment, and character.
“True patriotism also means pointing out faults and proposing solutions, while promoting human and developmental values — justice, competence, transparency, and investment in education and healthcare. Where corruption destroys opportunity, integrity restores it; where division breeds conflict, unity fosters progress.
“On this Valentine’s Day, let us embrace love that strengthens families, communities, and our nation. A new Nigeria is possible when love becomes action,” he wrote.
