You cannot say that things are difficult when you\u2019re living in conspicuous consumption.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigeria today is the country with the highest amount of people without homes \u2013 over 24 million, yet you\u2019re spending twenty-something billion to build a house for one person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The former presidential candidate likened Nigeria\u2019s situation to a pilot and an airplane going through turbulence.<\/p>\n<p>He said, \u201cYou\u2019re supposed to show a clear plan, it is not enough to say we\u2019re going to go through problems. If we\u2019re going to go through problems, this is very simple.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou enter a plane, there is a bad weather, there\u2019s going to be a turbulence. The pilot says, we\u2019re going to go through bad weather, it\u2019s going to take us maybe one hour, two hours because of this weather, and he follows it through.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is not the time- in that bad weather, everybody, even the crew, are asked to sit down. That\u2019s not the time to start serving food and wine and everything when everything is up and down.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI always say what happened to the Titanic is what is happening in Nigeria. While it was going down, people on the upper deck were busy dancing until the whole thing collapsed, that\u2019s what is happening now.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe should change and do things rightly. We can change and manage corruption and everything and all that.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Obi wondered why the government will spend N21 billion to build a mansion for the Vice-President while 24 million Nigerians do have a roof over their heads The Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in 2023, Peter Obi has likened Nigeria&#8217;s parlous and precarious situation to the infamous titanic ship that sank in 1912.
