Legit.ng recalls that in May, the federal government dismissed the alleged planned alliance between former vice president Atiku Abubakar and ex-governor of Anambra state, Peter Obi.

According to the presidency, Tinubu is not bothered about the planned alliance, noting that the president was not losing sleep over alliance plots by Atiku and Obi.

Atiku had contested the presidency in 2023 on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) but lost. Obi also contested as a presidential candidate on the platform of the Labour Party (LP) and came third in the election.
