Senator Datti Baba-Ahmed, a former Labour Party vice-presidential candidate, has dismissed the opposition coalition formed under the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Baba-Ahmed maintained that the ADC coalition is deceiving Nigerians.
He made the remarks on Friday while answering questions on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme.
“They are deceiving us. Yes, I’m a Labour Party for God’s sake. I still want Peter Obi to come back to the Labour Party and contest for the 2027 election.
“There are more fundamental issues I want to talk about, even this Buhari’s case that I talked about you led me into discussing, I don’t want to. There are more important things,” Datti said in response to a question on his views about ADC.
The ADC coalition is being championed by former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Rotimi Amaechi, Nasir El-Rufai and Mr Peter Obi.
