I will show the direction of good governance.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cTwo years can change it in a good direction. People want to get up and see a president who cares and shows compassion,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Obi, who restated his determination to run for the presidency again in 2027, said that he was qualified for the office.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cI\u2019m going to contest for the president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and I believe I am qualified for it,\u201d he said.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">On the possibility of his becoming a running mate to former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar in the 2027 election, Obi said: \u201cThis is not in play; nobody has ever discussed that.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cPeople assume so many things. Nobody has ever discussed with me whether I am going to be A, B or C.\u201d<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">He also dispelled the speculations that he had left Labour Party, following his open support for the coalition which had adopted African Democratic Congress (ADC).<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">Speaking on coalition with persons known to have played key roles in previous administrations, Obi explained that their experience was key to preventing the government he intends to form from failing.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cTheir experience is critical. I can tell you one of the major companies in the world hired two people who had worked in failed companies because they can tell you why they failed.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cYou need the experience of those who have failed and those who have succeeded in moving on, and I need everyone.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">\u201cIt is a critical experience because they know what can fail a system and they know what was wrong with the system,\u201d he said.
