FCT, Abuja – As Nigerians look forward to the 2027 election, Yunusa Tanko, the former spokesperson of the defunct Labour Party (LP) presidential campaign council, has said the ‘Obidient movement’ is bigger than the Labour Party (LP).
Speaking in an interview with Channels TV on Friday, June 7, Tanko asserted that the opposition party is also bigger than Peter Obi, the party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election.
The ally of the presidential hopeful argued that the Obidient movement has a life of its own, and supporters of Obi are only interested in good governance.
His words:
TimesNow.com.ng reports that the Labour Party is a social democratic political party in Nigeria. It was created in 2002 and was previously known as the Party for Social Democracy (PSD) before changing to its current name in 2003.
Built on the ideology of social democracy, the party’s membership and support increased significantly as Obi, a former governor of Anambra state, joined it shortly after he left the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in a bid to run for the 2023 presidential election.
