Former Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate, Peter Obi
met with ex-Kaduna State governor, Nasir El-Rufai.
Obi and El-Rufai met in the United States on the sidelines
of the 11th Annual Cambridge Africa Together Conference, ATC, holding at St.
John’s College, University of Cambridge.
El-Rufai was listed as one of the speakers at the
conference, which brings together African leaders, scholars, and change makers.
While Obi ran under the Labour Party in the last
presidential election, El-Rufai, who recently defected from the ruling All
Progressives Congress, APC, to the Social Democratic Party, SDP, is believed to
be politically aligned with former Vice President Atiku Abubakar.
Both politicians joined Atiku Abubakar in announcing the
formation of an opposition coalition.
The coalition is aimed at removing President Bola Tinubu
from power in 2023.
With the announcement, many believes that the coalition will
run on the platform of SDP.
El-Rufai has been described as Atiku’s placeholder in SDP.
