Labour Party Faction Rejects Peter Obi for 2027 Presidential Ticket

The Labour Party faction, led by Abayomi Arabambi, has declared that they will not grant former presidential candidate Peter Obi the party's ticket for the 2027 election. Arabambi, the National Publicity Secretary, emphasized that Obi would not secure the party's nomination despite his recent alignment with the African Democratic Congress.

The faction accused Obi of seeking personal influence within the party and working in alliance with other figures. Arabambi highlighted the party's momentum driven by the EndSARS movement and public discontent with the current administration.

The faction aims to challenge Obi openly and maintain the party's independence from political extremism.
