The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Labour Party (LP) on Friday endorsed the 2023 Presidential candidate of the party, Peter Obi as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general election.
The party, which has equally endorsed Governor Alex Otti of
Abia State’s re-election bid and Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour as the party’s flag
bearer in Lagos State, expressed confidence that Obi will unseat President Bola
Tinubu-led All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 presidential election.
The National Publicity Secretary of the party, Abayomi
Arabambi, who disclosed this in a statement he made available to Vanguard in
Abeokuta, Ogun State capital, said many Nigerians; especially youths are
currently yearning for Obi due to Tinubu’s policies that are not favourable to
the masses.
According to Arabambi, the main focus of the Labour Party in
2027 is to unseat President Tinubu in 2027 through democratic means, with Peter
Obi as the front-runner for the presidency in 2027.
He said, “Our major focus is getting the APC out of office
only through the ballot box if Nigerians so desire, and not through
illegitimate means”.
He said, “Peter Obi would once again represent the LP in the
2027 presidential race, and reiterated the party’s determination to support
Governor Otti’s re-election bid in Abia and Rhodes-Vivour’s gubernatorial
candidate in Lagos”.
“We are united in our resolve to bring about a better
Nigeria under the leadership of Peter Obi.”
