Former Presidential Aspirant Challenges Peter Obi: ‘Leave Labour Party If You Can’t End The Crisis Now’

Faduri Oluwadare Joseph, a former presidential aspirant of the Labour Party (LP), has issued a bold challenge to the party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, amidst the ongoing leadership crisis engulfing the opposition camp. With two factions, led by Julius Abure and Apapa Lamidi, vying for control of the LP national chairmanship, and the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) asserting its ownership of LP, the party finds itself at a critical juncture……READ ALSO BREAKING: Days After Amaechi’s Speech Amid Tinubu’s Certificate Controversy, Former APC Presidential Aspirant Congratulates Tinubu On Supreme Court Victory

In a statement released, Faduri urged Obi to take decisive action to prevent the collapse of the party and ensure its viability as a formidable opposition force in the lead-up to the 2027 general elections.

“Enough is enough! Let’s bury the hatchet and work together to bring good governance to our nation. This is a nation, in my own words, where we have everything but lack everything. If Mr Peter Obi cannot bring the party together, he should leave. I call on all well-meaning Nigerians with genuine hearts to rescue our party so we can rescue this nation. Nigerians need us,” Faduri emphasized.

Highlighting the significance of the Labour Party as a viable alternative for Nigerians, Faduri stressed the urgency of revitalizing the party’s leadership. “Labour Party is the only alternative party Nigerians are looking up to. Thus, we must move this nation from the old to a new generation through a change of leadership. If the leaders in the Labour Party cannot find a common ground to come together, I beg all of them to leave the party and let us rebuild this party with the help of NLC and Nigerians from the grassroots up and we will stand to challenge anyone, any government, by 2027,” he asserted.
