Why Is Datti Baba-Ahmed Refusing to Follow Obi Out of Labour Party?
As Nigeria looks toward the 2027 general elections, Senator Datti Baba-Ahmed has declared he will remain with the Labour Party, distancing himself from the political move made by his former running mate, Peter Obi.
Baba-Ahmed, who was Obi’s vice-presidential candidate in the 2023 election, said he has no intention of leaving the Labour Party, insisting that loyalty and consistency matter in politics.
Peter Obi recently exited the Labour Party and aligned with the African Democratic Congress (ADC), a coalition-backed platform aimed at challenging the ruling APC. However, Baba-Ahmed dismissed the ADC, describing its members as “disgruntled politicians” and questioning the credibility of the alliance.
Speaking at the Labour Party’s national headquarters in Abuja, the former Kaduna North senator also signaled his readiness to play a role in fixing Nigeria ahead of 2027.
Discussion Questions:
Is Datti Baba-Ahmed right to stay with the Labour Party despite Obi’s exit?
Does political loyalty matter more than strategy in Nigerian politics?
Is the ADC a genuine alternative or just a coalition of unhappy politicians?
Who stands a better chance in 2027: Labour Party loyalists or the new coalition?
