Former Anambra governor, Mr. Peter Obi on Friday, received a Certificate of Return from Labour Party (LP) as the presidential candidate of the party for next year’s general elections.
The LP announced this on its official Twitter handle: “Mr. Peter Obi Receives Labour Party Certificate of Returns as its Presidential Candidate for 2023 presidential elections. Congratulations!!,” the party tweeted.
Before now, a faction of the party had elected another presidential standard bearer for the same election next year.
But the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) maintained that it only recognises the party’s presidential election which produced Obi as its candidate.
