Former Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has clarified that the Africa Democratic Congress (ADC) coalition will work together, and no one is stepping down in his favor.
Speaking during an 𝕏 Space session on Sunday night, Obi stated that he does not need to formally join the ADC because he has always been a member and part of the coalition from its inception.
“I am not joining ADC. I can’t re-join what I am already a part of. I’ve been part of the coalition from day one. Nobody is stepping down for me in ADC. We have all agreed to work together, and Atiku Abubakar remains my respected leader,” he said.
According to a senior ADC official in Abuja, Obi’s loyalists have already begun preparing for his formal defection. The former governor recently met with ADC National Chairman David Mark to reaffirm his allegiance to the coalition, following the party’s request that he make a decision regarding membership three weeks ago.
The source revealed that Peter Obi plans to hold a declaration rally in Enugu, the political hub of the South-East, on December 31, signaling a new chapter in his political alignment ahead of the 2027 elections.
