Vice-Presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 election, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed, has given a personal account of what transpired between him and the then LP candidate, Mr. Peter Obi, saying he teamed up with him out of sympathy.
In an interview with Symfoni, he said his decision to run alongside Obi was not driven by ambition or alliance politics, but sympathy for the former Anambra governor.
He disclosed that before his entry into the race, Obi had reached out to at least three prominent political figures to serve as his running mate, but was turned down each time.
