Yunusa Tanko, the spokesman for Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi, has clarified that his principal is not eager to form an alliance or merger with other political parties at the expense of the masses.
Tanko made this statement on Monday’s edition of Channels Television’s Politics Today, emphasizing that Obi’s focus was on working towards a merger that prioritizes the betterment of Nigeria, not solely seeking power.
This comes just days after former Vice President Atiku Abubakar declared his intention to continue contesting the presidency for as long as his health permits, citing the inspirational story of former American President Abraham Lincoln.
