He made these remarks during a live session with his followers on his official Verified X platform, which was organised by Parallel Facts, yesterday.
The former Amambra State Governor emphasised his primary focus on making Nigeria work for all citizens. He expressed his commitment to this goal and refused to be distracted.

Obi expressed concern about the current state of affairs in Nigeria, suggesting that there may be attempts to divert attention from important issues. Our focus is not on the Labour Party, but rather on the actions that the Obidients wish to take for Nigeria.
“We are thinking about water, we are thinking about power, we are thinking about employment, thinking about security. That should be our focus.

“I’m a Christian. Jesus said, When you go into a city, try to change them, live with them, fast with them. in the end, you can’t, come out and even wash the sand that is on your shoes.
“He didn’t say go there and die with them. I tell you, I’m making spirited efforts to change them (LP), but I’m not going to die with them.
“That will not stop what we set out to do. We will try to change them (LP), if we can’t, we will leave them; we will not die with them.”
