In a related development, the Coalition for Peter Obi’s Presidential Aspiration had commended the former governor of Anambra state for dumping the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), saying the party has automatically lost about 15 million votes.

The organisation made its stance known in a statement on Thursday, May 26 issued after the official announcement of Obi’s defection from the PDP to the Labour Party.

The group added that Obi, as a decent man, would not play the type of transactional politics going on in the PDP and that was why he was wise to have dumped the party.
