Big Brother Naija star, Boma Akpore, says he needs a person with conscience and who has the interest of the country to be the president.

He stated this in an interview while speaking ahead of the February 25 general elections as he noted that all past leaders have failed the people.

The actor explained that if Nigeria is working properly it will spread to every sector and bring about the desire progress.

Speaking on the type of president he things the country needs, Boma said; “Hopefully, we can elect the person who can take us to the promised land. And most importantly, it won’t be empty promises this time. All our past leaders have failed us woefully.

If the nation is well, it will spread positively to every sector; not just the entertainment industry. I am more focused on a leader with conscience, who has the interest of the country at heart.”

Meanwhile, candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the just concluded presidential election, Peter Obi has said the primary purpose of any govenment is to take care of the poor.

He stated this during an interview with NTA while talking about his plans to lift millions of Nigerians out of poverty.

Obi reiterated his position that the moment he commences a system which promotes production there will be more revenue to cater to the needs of the less privileged.

The former Anambra state governor, however, said that he is dealing with a criminal structure and he is aware that it will not be easy for him to win but with the help of Nigerian youths it can be done.
