He further said, leaders in the country “cannot continue to preach for the people to sacrifice without sacrificing too”.
The former Governor of Anambra State made a statement about “complaints by Nigerians concerning a trending motorcade video”, saying, “I wasn’t opportune to see the video”.
Obi said: “I’ve been asked questions related to cutting down the cost of governance, and the complaints by Nigerians concerning a trending motorcade video. I wasn’t opportune to see the video, but I will repeat what I said.
“”The present Nigeria require that all those who serve and lead must do so by example. Their behaviour and their public conduct must be in consonance with what the society requires today.
“We cannot continue to preach for the people to sacrifice without sacrificing too. The sacrifices must now start from the leaders visibly, and measurably at all times because the people are suffering. We must now be at the forefront of addressing the suffering”.”
