Datti Baba-Ahmed has revealed what he wants Peter Obi to do ahead of the 2027 election.
Newsone Nigeria reports that Peter Obi’s running mate during the 2023 presidential election, Datti Baba-Ahmed, says the “Labour Party’s arms are open to welcome back Peter Obi”.
Baba-Ahmed, who made this comment on Tuesday night while speaking on Arise TV’s Prime Time, said he would not mind not being on the ticket in 2027 as long as Peter Obi runs for the position of President of Nigeria come 2027.
The Baze University founder also made it clear he is not yet convinced to join the African Democratic Congress, ADC, a party adopted by the National Opposition parties in Nigeria.
Baba-Ahmed said he would like Peter Obi to win the nomination of Labour Party and contest in 2027, with or without him as the running mate of the former Anambra governor.
“My own thinking is that you should convince me why I should go to ADC. Where was ADC in 2023 when Labour Party got 10 million votes? I’m yet to be convinced to leave LP.
“Labour Party’s arms are open to welcome back Peter Obi. I would like Peter Obi to win the nomination of Labour Party and contest in 2027, with or without me,” he said.
