Obi left the PDP days before its presidential primary, citing that “recent developments in the party do not support constructive contributions”.
A founding member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Jerry Gana, has revealed that the party has approached Peter Obi with a request to return.
He revealed this while speaking on AIT’s programme, Focus Nigeria, on Friday.
Obi resigned from the PDP on May 25, 2022, ahead of the 2023 elections.
The 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, left the PDP days before its presidential primary, citing that “recent developments in the party do not support constructive contributions”.
When asked if the party had spoken with Obi about returning, Gana responded, “Why not?”
Gana added, “He [Obi] is not the only person. We are also moving to other persons. But I don’t want to announce until we really get there.
“I have a very solid platform. I can now go back to these people and say the platform you were complaining about is now set, proper, and ready to move. I know many of them would respond.”
