According to Diran Onifade, Head of Media, Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), is not in talks with Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party.

In a statement issued on Wednesday in Abuja, Onifade stated that claims that Obi was in talks with Atiku about stepping down for the PDP Presidential candidate were “completely false and baseless.”

According to reports, Atiku is in talks with Obi and the presidential candidate of the New Nigeria People’s Party, Rabiu Kwankwaso, ahead of the presidential election this month.
