A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, Babatunde Gbadamosi, has defected to the Labour Party and declared his support for its presidential candidate, Peter Obi in the forthcoming 2023 election.
Gbadamosi disclosed this in a statement on Friday in Lagos.
“However, the exit of Peter Obi from the PDP and his subsequent emergence as the Presidential candidate of the LP, and his brilliant choice of Mallam Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed as running mate have rekindled my hope.
“I am 54 years old, and never in my life have I been privileged to witness the kind of energy, vim, vigor, unity and tenacity of purpose being exhibited by youths of all ethnicities and religious backgrounds in Nigeria over a political candidate..
“I hereby publicly declare my resignation from the PDP and wish all the remaining members well.
“By the same token, I also hereby publicly declare my support for the Labour Party and its presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi,” Gbadamosi said.
