Baba-Ahmed Declares 2027 Presidential Ambition After Peter Obi's Departure

Former vice presidential candidate under the Labour Party, Senator Datti Baba Ahmed, has announced his intention to run for the 2027 presidential election following Peter Obi's exit from the African Democratic Congress (ADC). Baba-Ahmed made the declaration at a rally held at the Labour Party's national secretariat in Abuja.

He emphasized his commitment to strictly adhere to the party's electoral guidelines. This move comes after Peter Obi's switch to the ADC, which has stirred reactions across the country, including comments from prominent figures like Bola Tinubu and Kelli Agaba from the Citizen Coalition.
