A former Director-General of the Labour Party Presidential Campaign Council, Akin Osuntokun, has said only the party’s presidential ticket in the next elections can make Peter Obi consider a return to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
The PDP’s 2023 presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, recently said that if in 2027, the party decided that it is the South-East’s turn and picked Obi as its candidate, he would readily offer his support.

He also said that a merger between the PDP and Labour Party is possible.
Responding to the comments, Mr. Osuntokun said considering Mr. Obi’s large support base in the last general elections, the only chance of him accepting to join the PDP is if he would be offered the party’s presidential ticket.
