FCT, Abuja - Barrister Daniel Bwala, the spokesperson of the Atiku Abubakar/Ifeanyi Okowa campaign organisation during the 2023 presidential election, has said Peter Obi is reportedly planning to team up with Nasir El-Rufai ahead of the 2027 election.
Bwala said Obi, a presidential candidate in the 2023 election, will move from the Labour Party (LP) to the Social Democratic Party (SDP) due to the current rift between his (Obi's) party and the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC).

According to Bwala, the NLC is 'set to take ownership and custody of its political party'.

Bwala, who projected "twist and turns in the coming days", made these claims via his verified X (formerly Twitter) on Friday, March 22.
The Bola Tinubu supporter insinuated that El Rufai, the immediate past governor of Kaduna state, is set to exit the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) for the SDP.
Bwala wrote:
"Peter Obi @PeterObi allegedly planning to unite with El-rufai @elrufai in Social Democratic Party as Nigerian Labour Congress set to take ownership and custody of their political party, the @NgLabour.
"Recall that there was a judgement of court that states that Nigeria Labour Congress owns Labour Party. NLC is now prepared to take custody of that party.
"Twist and turns in the coming days. But all that will not give sleepless night to @officialABAT who himself has his magic wands to wield."
