Labour Party’s presidential candidate in last year’s election, Peter Obis says he would only consider a merger with the PDP if the goal is to better govern Nigeria and unlock its vast potential.
Obi who made this known in a statement on Saturday, said he has no interest in mergers or alliances solely to secure power or win elections.
According to him, the most important thing is to be able to build a better Nigeria.
“If the merger is to be able to govern Nigeria properly, unlock all those things that will make Nigeria a better place, I’m for it,” he said.
“If it’s just a merger for election or state capture, I’m not for it or part of it, I don’t want to be part of anything like that.”
“It might be at the party level, it might be at the individual level, might be at any level, but we must come together to be able to build a better Nigeria,” he said.
