The Peter Obi Media Reach, POMR, has unequivocally refuted reports suggesting his departure from the Labour Party, LP, on whose platform he ran as a presidential candidate in 2023. Through a statement issued by Michael Nwolisa, Obi’s Media Aide, in Abuja on Friday, the assertion was branded as false and baseless. The news, as per Nwolisa, did not emanate from Obi or the “Obidient” Movement but was concocted by troublemakers with the aim of sowing discord within the party.
In a bid to shed light on the situation, Nwolisa highlighted the ongoing efforts of malevolent forces to destabilize the party in order to undermine Obi. He emphasized that these disruptive activities have been orchestrated to tarnish the party’s reputation and cause disarray, all as a means to target Obi himself.
Nwolisa underlined the fact that the targeted party activities were not a recent development but a sustained campaign to delegitimize and disorganize the LP, particularly with Obi in their crosshairs. He made it clear that Obi’s primary focus currently lies in contributing to the betterment of Nigeria, rather than engaging in partisan politics. This shift in focus allegedly occurred after the Supreme Court’s final ruling on the presidential election on October 26, 2023.
Amidst the chaos, Nwolisa asserted that Obi remains resolute in his allegiance to the LP. He pointed out that enemies of democracy are actively working to sow discord within the LP, highlighting the importance of upholding democratic principles without the prevalence of political impunity.
Nwolisa emphasized Obi’s commitment to creating a political landscape where democracy thrives and where the will of the Nigerian people reigns supreme. He assured Nigerians, especially the “Obidient” family, that Obi’s loyalty to the LP remains unwavering and intact. The statement encapsulated Obi’s unwavering dedication to the ongoing struggle to liberate Nigeria from the grasp of those hindering its progress, emphasizing that this pursuit will continue until the desired outcome is achieved through the collective will of the Nigerian populace.
In conclusion, the statement exuded a sense of resilience and determination in the face of adversity, asserting that Obi’s alignment with the LP remains steadfast despite the attempts to undermine his position within the party. It painted a picture of a leader focused on the greater good, committed to steering Nigeria towards progress and democratic values.
