Valentine: Loving Nigeria Means Promoting Fair Elections, Rejecting Corruption — Peter Obi

The 2023 Peter Obi has said that loving Nigeria involves promoting free and fair elections while rejecting vices such as corruption, greed, and division.

Obi made the remarks on Saturday via his verified X handle while sending a Valentine’s message to Nigerians, emphasising that the country needs “love in action.”

He added that Saint Valentine serves as a reminder that love is more than an emotion; it requires sacrifice, discipline, and a commitment to what is right, including 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.
