Obi disowns campaign manifesto, to reveal seven point agenda today

The Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has disowned a campaign manifesto in circulation on social media, calling on his supporters to disregard it.

Obi in a disclaimer published on his Twitter page on Monday said what was being paraded as the LP campaign manifesto was a draft document that is still under review.

The LP candidate said he will personally release the approved and final draft of the campaign manifesto once it is ready.

We have not formally released our Manifesto. I will do so personally. It seems an earlier draft copy under review has made its way into the public space. Until I release the approved and final draft, please disregard what is being circulated. -PO

Meanwhile, Director General of the Labour Party presidential campaign organisation, Doyin Okupe, said Obi will release the document containing his seven-point agenda to the public today (Monday).

He made this known in a tweet late Sunday.

He stated that the document titled, ‘The Pact with Nigeria’ will highlight the seven governance priorities of Obi and his running mate, Datti Baba-Ahmed.

According to Okupe, the agenda will usher in “our dream of a new Nigeria.

Okupe said, “Tomorrow the 31st of October, the presidential campaign organisation of the LP will release to the media & the public ‘The Pact with Nigeria’, the document that chronicles the seven governance priorities of the Obi-Baba Ahmed administration which will usher in our dream for a new Nigeria.”
