2027: ‘No Agreement Yet,’ Obi Breaks Silence On Pact With Atiku, Kwankwaso
The Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 elections, Peter Obi, has broken his silence on the rumored pact with Atiku Abubakar and Rabiu Kwankwaso for the 2027 presidency.
According to Obi, there is currently no merger agreement between the Labour Party and any other opposition party.
Obi’s statement comes amid speculation that the Labour Party had entered into a merger deal with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP).
While he didn’t confirm or deny the existence of merger talks, Obi emphasised that there was “no agreement yet”.
Speaking at a press conference on the state of the nation in Abuja, Obi appealed to all Nigerians, regardless of their political affiliations, to unite and work together to defeat the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), which he believes has mismanaged the country’s resources.
Obi also expressed concern over Nigeria’s security situation, criticizing the current administration’s handling of corruption and the economy.
He described the security situation as “unfortunate” and faulted the government’s claims of fighting corruption, arguing that the level of corruption in Nigeria remains high.
The Labour Party candidate’s statement is likely to spark further debate and speculation about the 2027 presidential elections, which are still over a year away.
