Hours before the start of the election campaigns, the candidate of the Labour party, Peter Obi, and the African Democratic Congress, Dumebi Kachikwu, both ruled out any discussions of forming an alliance.
On “Politics Today” on Channels TV, Kachikwu described Obi as a member of the previous political establishment with nothing to offer Nigerians and who was solely interested in advancing his or her own interests.
He said, “Why we won‘t come together with Obi to form an alliance is because there is no difference between him and other candidates. He is part of the old political order.Infomation Guide Nigeria
