Peter Obi has declared his 2027 Presidential ambition.
Eko Hot News reports that Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, has confirmed he will contest the 2027 presidential election.
The Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election said he was willing to serve a single four-year term if elected.
Obi made the declaration on Sunday night, June 29, 2025, while speaking during a live session on X Space, where he answered questions from supporters both in Nigeria and abroad.
In a statement released by Ibrahim Umar of the Peter Obi Media Reach on Monday, June 30, 2025, Obi dismissed claims of a possible joint ticket with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
However, he admitted being open to coalition talks, only if they are focused on addressing Nigeria’s core problems.
“If the coalition is not about stopping the killings in Benue, Zamfara, how to revive our economy, how to make our industries productive, how to put food on the tables of Nigerians… Count me out. Nigeria is currently at war. We need to do something about it,” Obi said.
The former Anambra Governor also promised to stabilise Nigeria within two years of his administration and urged Nigerians to join him in the mission to rescue the nation.
“I will bring stability in Nigeria within two years in office. Leaders of Nigeria should sit down in Nigeria and fix Nigeria,” he added.
