Ex-spokesperson for the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign
Organisation, Daniel Bwala, has alleged an ongoing plot by the presidential
candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 Presidential Election, Peter
Obi, to dump LP and join immediate past Kaduna Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, in the
Social Democratic Party (SDP).

intractable conflict between the party leadership and the leadership of the
Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).

general elections.
