Peter Obi’s Strong Ally, Obaze Dumps Labour Party by Slytiger(op): 3:19pm On May 04, 2025
Mr Oseloka H. Obaze, a key ally of Mr Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 general elections, has resigned his membership of the party.

Obaze disclosed this in a letter addressed to LP Chairman in Ochuche Ward 406, Ogbaru Local Government in Awka on Sunday.

Obaze, a former United Nations Diplomat was the Secretary to Anambra Government under Obi and had worked closely with him as an adviser and chieftain of the party until his resignation from LP.

He said his decision was to express his disapproval and protest the conduct of the April 5 governorship primary election of the party in Anambra.

According to him, by virtue of this letter, I hereby tender my resignation from the Labour Party (LP).

“The processes, conduct and outcome of the Labour Party governorship primaries held on April 5, 2025 in Awka, were fraught with outright irregularities, bothering on fraud and criminality.

“It was not in tandem with either the party’s Constitution and espoused core values or true tenets of democracy.

"As such, I hereby disassociate myself henceforth from the Labour Party,” he said.

Obaze told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that “the letter was real and speaks for itself".

Obaze also cited the leadership crisis in the LP at the national level and the refusal of leaders of the party to harmonise or reconcile the Julius Abure and Sen. Nenadi Usman factions.

He however did not disclose his next political moves.

Obaze resigned from PDP in 2022, one week ahead of Peter Obi, to the Labour Party.

He subsequently became Peter Obi’s campaign manager and one of the prominent brains behind the Obedient Movement.

He will manage Nigeria. Someone who cannot handle small whatsapp group of people from different tribes. Even in Anambra, he was a total disaster. He will rathert blame everyone else but himself.

APC started as a coalition and while politicians are speaking of forming coalition to battle APC all we see is APC becoming a more stronger coalition every time. Just pay attention, this guy will soon join APC.

This does not make your beloved APC better in any way.
Your party does not have any ideology and is bereft of ideas to transform this failed contraption called Nigeria.

What is the difference between PDP and APC and any other party today?

You are always very quick to comment on any thread about Peter Obi. He will continue to be your worst nightmare.

You chicken out of conversations regarding the state of the nation and how your party has been a collosal failure in the last ten years, even fielding a Buhari as a president.

Can you tell us why you are always quick to comment on threads about LP and Peter Obi, but avoid threads that talk about the obvious poor state of the nation?


Do you mean well for Nigeria at all?

PO is gradually leaving Labour party. He is letting his boys to go out first. Enemies will be rejoicing in vane but they dont know PO is more intelligent than all of them combine

Normal thing for Africans, especially Nigerian politicians; they face anywhere wey potential for an opportunity to loot dey. No loyalty, no principles, no ideologies, no dignity, just looking for where to steal without accountability. So sad.

I don’t think people understand what PO represents, he is bigger than the party. People only got to know about LP because of PO and if he decides to leave or even form a party the multitude of people will still follow him because they believe in him and what he stands for. The opposition can make jokes and make moves to capture everyone from LP or every other party but the wish of the people must follow through at the end and this is Peter Obi las las.
