The Labour Party (LP), has declared its 2027 presidential ticket open to all aspirants, stating it will not grant special preference to any candidate, including its 2023 flagbearer, Peter Obi.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a press conference in Abuja, the party\u2019s National Publicity Secretary, Abayomi Arabambi, criticized Obi\u2019s recent political alliance with a new coalition under the African Democratic Congress (ADC), calling it a betrayal and a repeat of past political miscalculations.<\/p>\n
Arabambi described Obi\u2019s 2023 candidacy as a \u201cblunder\u201d that the party would not repeat, affirming that the Labour Party would conduct transparent primaries ahead of the next general election.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo aspirant will be favoured this time around,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n
He also condemned the new coalition, branding its members as \u201cYahoo Yahoo politicians\u201d responsible for Nigeria\u2019s challenges since 2015.<\/p>\n
\u201cNigerians may wish him well in that ungodly coalition, but they must remember it\u2019s the same alliance that brought disaster,\u201d Arabambi warned.<\/p>\n
The party reiterated its commitment to internal democracy, encouraging credible Nigerians to vie for its 2027 presidential ticket.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
