Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Mr Peter Obi says \u201cIt is time to move past outdated traditions of tribalism, religious bias, and the \u201cmy turn\u201d syndrome.<\/p>\n

Obi said this is to foster an environment that values competence, capacity, integrity, fresh perspectives, and forward-thinking leadership.<\/p>\n

The statement comes after Nigerian-born Kemi Badenoch emerged as the leader of the Conservative Party in the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n

Obi said the news is gratifying and cannot come at a better time than now that events in the country are making Nigerians doubt their potential.<\/p>\n

In a post on his X handle on Sunday, the former Anambra State governor said Nigerians should use the celebration as a catalyst for change within the nation\u2019s leadership landscape.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cThe gratifying news of the election of a Nigerian-born @KemiBadenoch as the leader of the Conservative Party in the United Kingdom cannot come at a better time than now that events in the country are making Nigerians doubt their potential.<\/p>\n

\u201cBadenoch\u2019s election is a powerful testament to the global potential of Nigerian and African youth.<\/p>\n

\u201cHer success showcases the strength of diversity and underscores the possibilities achievable when competence, capacity, integrity, and inclusivity are prioritized.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis accomplishment is both inspiring and a wake-up call, highlighting the leadership paradox in Nigeria, where younger leaders with proven competence, capacity, and integrity often remain sidelined in favor of older figures who lack the same drive and qualities that the younger ones bring to the table.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs we celebrate Kemi\u2019s achievement, let us use it as a catalyst for change within our leadership landscape.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is time to move past outdated traditions of tribalism, religious bias, and the \u201cmy turn\u201d syndrome and foster an environment that values competence, capacity, integrity, fresh perspectives, and forward-thinking leadership.<\/p>\n

\u201cEmbracing a new generation of leaders can pave the way for a better future for Nigeria and Africa.<\/p>\n

\u201cCongratulations, Kemi Badenoch. A new Nigeria is indeed possible!\u201d<\/p>\n
