Honors are showering on the former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi. On February 17, 2024, at a ceremony, he was named the 2023 Political Icon of the Year by The Sun Awards, a deserved recognition for his commitment to a better Nigeria. It’s a consecration after winning The Sun’s Man of the Year award in 2007.
Accompanied at the event by renowned personalities, including Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the Labor Party candidate for the 2023 government elections in Lagos, Peter Obi expressed his gratitude for this distinction. He dedicated the honor to underprivileged Nigerians who struggle with economic uncertainties on a daily basis, especially the youth who believe in a new Nigeria.
This award symbolizes the hope of a country where everyone can realize their dreams. Despite the challenges Nigeria faces, Peter Obi calls for unity across ethnic, religious and political divides. His vision is clear: break the chains of bad governance to build a new Nigeria, a country where justice and prosperity reign for all.
During the last presidential election, Peter Obi stood out by obtaining an impressive third place, despite his first candidacy. His influence on results goes well beyond the numbers, demonstrating his remarkable commitment to the future of his country.
This new distinction sheds additional light on the exceptional career of Peter Obi and reinforces his status as an influential and visionary politician. By awarding him this award, The Sun Awards celebrates a committed leader who embodies hope and inspires an entire nation to continue the fight for a better Nigeria.
