REVEALED: Obi planning to run joint ticket with El-Rufai against Tinubu In 2027
A former spokesman of the defunct Atiku-Okowa Presidential Campaign Council, Daniel Bwala, has alleged that the 2023 Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is plotting to unite with former Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai in the Social Democratic Party (SDP), ahead of the 2027 general elections.
According to Bwala, Obi’s move followed the decision of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) to take over the LP from Julius Abure’s leadership.
He wrote on X, “BREAKING-Peter Obi @PeterObi allegedly planning to unite with El-rufai @elrufai in Social Democratic Party as Nigerian Labour Congress set to take ownership and custody of their political party, the @NgLabour.
Recall that there was a judgment of the court that states that Nigeria Labour Congress owns Labour Party. NLC is now prepared to take custody of that party.
El-Rufai recently visited the headquarters of the SDP in Abuja and met with the party’s national chairman, Alhaji Shehu Musa Gabam.
