The Interim National Publicity Secretary of the African
Democratic Congress, ADC, Bolaji Abdullahi, has disclosed that former Labour
Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, knows that the virus that has
afflicted the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has no cure.
Abdullahi said PDP is looking for a poster boy to repair
their bad image, hence the attempt to woo Obi back into their fold.
He disclosed that the 2027 presidential hopeful has not
informed ADC that he is no longer a key member.
This comes amid reports that Obi was considering returning
to the PDP to contest for the 2027 presidential election.
Obi is said to have held talks with some top PDP officials
while considering his moves.
But the Obidient Movement had insisted that Obi is still a
member of the LP and would likely contest for the presidency in 2027.
However, speaking with Nigerian Tribune, Abdullahi said:
“Has he told us? What I am saying is that anybody can talk to anybody. But if
he comes back to us as party leaders to say see oh, what I told you the last
time, my position has changed. Has he told us that? The answer is no.
“So, we will wait for Peter Obi to come and tell us that he
is no longer part of the ADC. But he hasn’t done that, and we are confident
that he is solidly part of this coalition; his nominees are in the hierarchy of
this party, the leadership of the party. So, we aren’t bothered.
“You see, PDP is PDP. They are looking for a poster boy to
repair their battered image. In the order of opposition ranking, I saw a poll,
do you know that LP ranked higher than PDP?
“PDP is now number four in the order of ranking ahead of
NNPP. So why should we be bothered? Peter Obi knows the virus that has
afflicted PDP has no cure.”
