Presidential hopeful Peter Obi says he remains a chieftain of the Labour Party (LP) despite being a vibrant member of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) opposition coalition to unseat President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2027.
Obi, who was a guest on Sunday Politics programme, said his action does not in any way translate to anti-party activity.
