The Middle Belt Forum (MBF) has publicly stated its belief in the integrity of former Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi. The forum expressed confidence that Obi would honor his promise to serve only a single term if he is elected president in the 2027 general election.
This statement comes amidst ongoing political discussions and realignments ahead of the 2027 polls, where Peter Obi has been reiterating his vow to govern for just one four-year term.
The MBF’s endorsement of Obi’s promise is significant, as it aligns with the group’s previous support for him during the 2023 elections.
The pledge to serve a single term is a key part of Obi’s campaign strategy, which he says is rooted in a commitment to purpose over power.
He has argued that four years is sufficient to implement the necessary reforms to address Nigeria’s challenges, including improving the economy and tackling insecurity.
