Noting that citizens yearn for more development, he expressed hope that “the collective dream” would be fulfilled in near future.

Obasa said if Nigeria was placed side by side with some other countries and assessed, the difference would be clear.

“Today, people choose to go to Dubai. Look at their development in the last 50 years. We heard stories of how their leaders visited Ibadan for medical checkups.

“Now, what do we have? Nigerians visiting the UAE and others for medical reasons. China is a super power because of its growth

“The most important thing for us now is to have a leader who understands and can handle our situation.”

The Speaker argued that fixing Nigeria requires good administration and reminded the people of the opportunity to get it right by 2023.
