Peter Obi reveals why he never criticizes ESN despite mayhem in South-East

Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, says he is unsure of the Eastern Security Network’s (ESN) operations and cannot, therefore, denounce them.

The former governor of Anambra disclosed this while speaking at “The Candidates,” a presidential town hall series; adding that unrest in some regions of the nation is due to poor leadership.

Peter Obi declared that if he were to become president, his administration would use discussion to resolve the problem.

“The first of our seven-point agenda is to ensure the security of the lives and properties of Nigerians; to show a united and one Nigeria by ensuring that there is equity, justice, and doing things following rule of law.

“Everywhere in the country is full of agitation. It is the effect of leadership failure. There is nothing wrong with agitation. You dialogue and discuss with everybody.

“I can’t condemn ESN because I’m not sure who is doing what. You can only condemn people when there is a process in which they have said this person has done something.”
