The Labour Party Presidential candidate, Peter Obi has asserted that no serious leader would go on a rest (vacation) in Nigeria given the enormity of problems bedeviling the country.
The former Governor of Anambra State made this disclosure on Monday when he paid the Muslim community in Akwa Central Mosque an Eid-el-fitr visit.
He appealed to Nigerians not to allow themselves to be divided based on religion or politics by politicians.
He said: ‘People who want to rest can go and relax. I am not resting because I have to visit schools and hospitals and interact with people.
‘No serious leader will go and rest in Nigeria. We will continue to visit as many people as possible and support them as best we can’.
