A former presidential aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Peter Obi, has joined the Labour Party, LP, to actualize his presidential ambition.

On Tuesday, Mr Obi withdrew his membership of the PDP, attributing his decision to the “recent developments” in the party.

Breaking the news of his foray into a new political party via his Twitter handle, the presidential hopeful said “the process of achieving our goal is as fundamental as what one will do thereafter”.

“Therefore, I have chosen a route that I consider to be in line with our aspirations and my mantra of taking the country from consumption to production; and that is the Labour Party which is synonymous with the people, workers, development, production, securing and uniting Nigerians as one family.
