According to him, the country is collapsing under the watch of incompetent and incapable people; come out en mass on February 16 and vote out this the APC controlled-government.

He said: “Nigeria has the highest number of poor people in the world today where about 90 millions are poor that is half of the population.

Obaze expressed confidence on the chances of PDP to win the presidential election, saying Nigerians need a new lease of life.

He said: “PDP findings show that Nigerians are not happy with the present government of APC and re-electing them will worsen the sufferings of the people.

“If you vote for the present government to return, things will be worse than we had in the last three years and half.

“They made several promises in 2015 and they have not fulfilled any, we want to restore the economy and human dignity in the next four years.''

Obaze said there was nothing to show that PDP governors in southeast were against the Atiku/Obi ticket as no one had come out openly to say he was not supporting it.

He said: “The PDP governors in the South-East are solidly behind Atiku-Obi ticket, so there is no need to worry about.’’
