The Labour Party has openly expressed support for Peter Obi’s decision to align with the African Democratic Congress (ADC), describing the move as a calculated political step aimed at advancing collective opposition strength ahead of upcoming elections.
Party officials explained that the position was reached after extensive internal deliberations, stressing that the endorsement reflects a broader strategy rather than internal disagreement or fragmentation. According to the party, Obi’s political journey and leadership style remain consistent with the values Labour Party stands for, including transparency, accountability, and people-centered governance.
The Labour Party noted that current political realities require collaboration among reform-minded groups to present a strong and united alternative.
