Labour party speaks on forthcoming by-elections, blasts Obi for backing ADC

The Labour Party has criticized 2023 presidential candidate Peter Obi for supporting the ADC Julius faction in the forthcoming by-elections. In a statement signed by Abure, the party accused Obi of engaging in political subterfuge and maintaining affiliations with multiple parties simultaneously.

They described Obi as an "Uber politician" who is desperate to preside over Nigeria. The party expressed disappointment in Obi's actions, calling it an irony and paradox in Nigeria's political space.

In response to Obi's directive to support ADC candidates in the upcoming by-elections on August 16, the Labour Party condemned his decision and urged their supporters to stand against it. Obi's actions have sparked controversy and criticism within the political landscape.
