Peter Obi officially joins Labour Party

#NigeriaDecides2019: Peter Obi rejects Presidential Election Results in Anambra

Presidential hopeful and former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi has officially joined the Labour Party (LP) to contest the 2023 presidential election.

This comes two days after he resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and withdrew from its presidential primaries.

Obi, in a statement released via Twitter on Friday, May 27, announced his decision to join the Labour Party because it aligns with his goal of moving Nigeria from consumption to production.

He said; ”I thank all Nigerians, especially our youths who have joined me in the mission of taking back and reuniting Nigeria.

This project is yours and for the future of your children. I am just a facilitator.

Since I resigned from the PDP because of issues that are at variance with my persona and principles, I have consulted widely with various parties and personalities to ensure we do not complicate the route to our desired destination.

For me, the process of achieving our goal is as fundamental as what one will do thereafter.

Therefore, I have chosen a route that I consider to be in line with our aspirations and my mantra of taking the country from consumption to production; and that is the Labour Party which is synonymous with the people, workers, development, production, securing and uniting Nigerians as one family. I invite all Nigerians to join me in taking back our country.
