Senate Minority Leader and Senator representing Benue South Senatorial District, Abba Moro, says presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, stands a chance to secure the presidential ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party if he returns to the main opposition party.
Moro said this on Tuesday while responding to questions in an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme.
When asked about the possibility of Peter Obi returning to the PDP, Moro said, “But you know, in politics, nothing is certain. I’ve always said that in politics, two plus two is not four, and so, these are matters of interest. And when it comes to existential interest from a community of persons within a geopolitical zone, it is possible.
“As a party we are yet to speak to Peter Obi; some people are already talking to him, and he stands a chance of getting the party’s ticket if he returns.
“The conversation is predicated on the belief by such individuals that if Peter Obi comes back and is the most favoured candidate, the most supported candidate, and becomes a candidate, the PDP will make an impact in the 2027 general elections.”
