Prof Pat Utomi, Chief Driver and Leader of the BIG TENT, emphasized on the need to return Nigeria to the path of industry, hard-work and comparative competitive development.
The pioneer of the initiative, Deacon Chris Iyawoye told the audience that in Peter Gregory Obi, Presidential Candidate of Labour Party, “we have found a Man who can truly take our Country from Consumption to Production.”
Comrade Julius Abure, National Chairman of LP challenged the audience to make real the love and the passion they have for Obi and his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed by voting for them at the polls. (Daily Trust)
