The Julius Abure-led LP had issued a 48-hour ultimatum to Obi to leave the party or be expelled.
 
Abure’s leadership said it is vehemently opposed to joining the coalition while dismissing members of the coalition as “power mongers whose only interest was self and not the people.”
 
Reacting, Ahmad posted on X: “I am not a fan of Peter Obi or his ideologies, but let’s be honest, it is incredibly disrespectful for the Labour Party to ask him to resign from the party within hours. It is utterly ungrateful.

“No exaggeration, but at least 75% of the party’s current base and momentum exist because of him.

“His entry gave the party national relevance. You don’t treat the person who built your house like a visitor.”
 
Obi is currently one of the key players in the opposition coalition which adopted the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
