The 2023 presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP) Peter Obi, has charged politicians to avoid using public funds for their own personal gain as the money does not belong to them but the people.
Obi made this outburst on Monday at the Grimard School of Nursing and Midwifery, Ayingba, Dekina Local Government Area of Kogi State.
In his words, “We politicians should realise that the money in our care does not belong to us but to the people and we should spend it to uplift their standard of living.
The money is not our own, it belongs to the people, we are under obligation to spend it on the people,” he said.
He further made a donation of N10m to the school and promised to sink a borehole that would serve the school and the host community of Ayingba.
Obi has also visited Ankpa and Olamaboro local government areas where he inaugurated two boreholes to serve the communities.
