Nigerian politician and 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate (LP), Peter Obi has clarified that he remains committed to the party he belongs to, LP.

Ekwutosblog reports that Obi had on Wednesday criticised the decision of the party to appoint directors to coordinate the registration of all members of the ‘Obedient’ community and integrate them fully into the structure of the party.

In a statement posted on his official X account on Thursday, the politician stated that he is a loyal member of LP and works towards reconciling disgruntled members to the party.

He said “For the avoidance of doubt, ‘I remain a committed, Loyal Labour Party member’. That is my definitive response to all Nigerians who may be in doubt about my party affiliation in the light of recent reports and conflicting interpretations of recent political expressions.”

“I remain a faithful, committed and loyal member of the Labour Party. Indeed as a Leader of the party, my aspiration, and desire to work closely with other Leaders is to reconcile our valued members, and partner with like minds and parties all over the country to build a strong and better Party that will catalyze and commence the rebuilding of a new Nigeria.”

The former Governor of Anambra state added “My statement yesterday was intended to clarify some issues that are of concern to our teeming supporters some of whom are not members of any political party but are desirous for a new Nigeria.”

IMO APC WARNS AGAINST UNAUTHORIZED SCREENING, MOCK PRIMARIES AND EXTORTION OF ASPIRANTS

The attention of the State Working Committee of our great party has been drawn to a disturbing trend where some individuals within the party are attempting to subject our candidates to unauthorized screening, extortion and mock primaries. This actions are not only undemocratic and unhealthy but contrary to the party’s established guidelines and procedures.

We strongly condemn these nocturnal and clandestine activities, which are deliberately designed to undermine the party’s democratic processes. We warn those individuals involved in this unauthorized exercise to desist immediately, as we will not hesitate to take disciplinary action against anyone caught engaging in such activities, regardless of their position or status within the party.

Our party is committed to upholding the principles of democracy, fairness, and transparency in all our activities. We will not allow any individual or group to compromise these values.

We urge all aspirants and stakeholders to disregard any invitation or solicitation to participate in these unauthorized screening, extortion and mock primaries.

Let’s be guided accordingly!

SIGNED:

CAJETAN DUKE, JP
