‘Obi is free to leave NLC’, says NLC spokesperson

The Nigeria Labour Congress through its spokesperson has told the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party Mr. Peter Obi that he is free to leave the NLC.

This was disclosed by Benson Upah in an interview on Sunday.

He said, “Our position on this matter is clear and has not changed. Abure remains unknown to us. It is not a question of removal. As far as we know, he does not exist.”

“The right of choice is available to Mr Obi. If he chooses to leave the party, that is his preference. We can’t sit in judgment over him on that. But if he chooses to remain, of course, Peter Obi is an asset any day. I rest my case on that,” he said.
