The 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, PETER OBI, has called on the masses and political leaders, to respect and protect the institutions of a democratic state, by obeying the governing laws of the state and being accountable to the people.

OBI in a series of tweets on X, said democracy was beyond elections, but fulfilling the responsibilities of responsible governance as contained in the constitution.

The former Anambra State Governor also lamented some of the ratings, which he said were indications that the nation is not truly democratic.

He, however, noted that the creation of a true society for democracy to thrive is possible.
