2023: Peter Obi will transform Nigeria – Pat Utomi expresses confidence

Professor of political economy, Pat Utomi has expressed confidence that Presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi will transform Nigeria.

Speaking on Politics Today, a Channels TV political program on Sunday, Utomi said Nigeria’s democracy is not working because of the transaction costs that are involved

According to him, Nigerian leaders are terrified of the young people’s cries for a new Nigeria that will benefit all Nigerians

He said, “Right now, Nigeria’s democracy is not working because of the transaction costs that are involved, the trade offs that have to be made such that eventually when people get to power they find that what is wrong with power is not the purpose.

“They forget the purpose because there are so many deals, IOU to win the election and in the end we get the politics of politicians for politicians by politicians and not a democracy that is for the people and by the people

“Nigerian politicians are so connected to the deals they can make rather than the service of the people,” he said
