Former Anambra State governor and the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has reassured his supporters that he remains a member of the party.
Speaking in Enugu on Friday, Obi emphasized that any decision regarding his political future would be made openly and at the right time.
“I am still in the Labour Party. Whenever I want to leave, you will know,” Obi declared, addressing a gathering of supporters and party faithful.
Obi’s statement comes amid widespread speculation that the former governor is considering forming or aligning with the Social Democratic Party (SDP) ahead of the 2027 elections.
However, he reaffirmed his commitment to the values of good governance, accountability, and economic transformation—principles he championed during his 2023 presidential campaign.
“I remain committed to the cause of building a better Nigeria. My focus is on the people, not political distractions. What matters is how we can work together to create a nation that works for everyone,” he added.
