A member of the Labour Party, Abayomi Arabambi, has cast doubt on claims that former presidential candidate Peter Obi formally resigned from the party, adding a new dimension to ongoing discussions about Obi’s political standing.
Speaking in an interview on News Central TV, Arabambi maintained that there is no concrete evidence to support the assertion that Obi officially left the Labour Party.
He challenged those promoting the narrative to provide verifiable proof, emphasizing that no video recording or credible public documentation has surfaced to confirm such a move. His remarks directly question the legitimacy of reports suggesting a formal separation.
Arabambi contrasted the situation with the actions of other prominent Nigerian politicians who have changed party affiliations in recent years.
According to him, figures such as Nasir El-Rufai, Atiku Abubakar, and Rotimi Amaechi made their political transitions openly, with their defections widely covered and clearly documented across media platforms.
He argued that these examples demonstrate how genuine resignations or defections are typically handled in the public space.
In describing Obi’s political conduct, Arabambi suggested that the former Anambra State governor operates in a less predictable manner.
He portrayed Obi as someone whose political movements are not always clearly defined, making it difficult to determine his exact alignment at any given time.
This characterization, he implied, contributes to the confusion surrounding Obi’s current relationship with the Labour Party.
Arabambi’s comments underscore the broader uncertainty about Obi’s position within Nigeria’s political landscape.
His remarks suggest that the absence of a formal resignation may allow Obi to maintain strategic flexibility, while also fueling debate over transparency and party loyalty in the country’s evolving democratic process…..See More
