Former presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, Peter Obi, has said that the African Democratic Congress coalition will always put Nigerians first in all its decisions.
This is as Obi reaffirmed his support for the adoption of the ADC as the coalition platform ahead of the 2027 general elections to unseat President Bola Tinubu.
Obi said the move was borne out of a commitment to provide competent and compassionate leadership for Nigeria.
In a post on his X handle on Thursday, the former Anambra governor said the coalition’s decision to unite under the ADC was not taken lightly, but came after “deep reflection” on Nigeria’s current state and the urgent need for a new direction.
Obi wrote, ”Yesterday, the coalition members formally adopted the African Democratic Congress (ADC) for the 2027 Nigeria General Elections with Distinguished Senator David Mark serving as the National Chairman and H.E. Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola serving as the National Secretary.
