Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Peter Obi, says his visit to the party’s secretariat in Abuja was reconciliatory and not to endorse any group in the party.
Obi made this known via a statement issued by his spokesperson, Dr Yunusa Tanko, on Wednesday, May 22, 2024.
Tanko said Obi had repeatedly maintained that his interest was to carry everybody along into one strong family and not to endorse anyone’s interest.
He said the visit was part of consultations in search of peace in the Labour Party.

Tanko noted: “In line with this, he also met with the political arm of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) on Wednesday in continuation of his search for peace in the party.
“During his meeting with the workers’ union, the leadership of the NLC/TUC political commission led by Mr Titus Amba and Mr Chris Uyot were also disposed to peace in the party.
“At the meeting, he made the point that the party needed to reconcile all positions in a peaceful atmosphere to have a united house that should be all-inclusive.
“He thanked the leadership of the political commission for their understanding and expressed the hope for a good working relationship very shortly.”
