The vice presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Datti Baba-Ahmed, says he did not declare interest in contesting for the presidency in 2027.
Datti said this on Friday during an interview on Channels Television’s The Morning Brief explaining that he only clarified that he was still a member of the LP.
“I never declared to contest the presidency even though there could be a possibility of that happening. I certainly did not declare for the presidency. I simply reiterated my membership of the Labour Party,” the Labour Party chieftain said on the morning show.
“That is all and in the submissions I made, I clearly stated that one will have to wait for the INEC timetable and for the party to make the call for people to indicate their interest.”
He blamed those who employ sensationalism on social media “for putting out wrong narratives to emotional listeners”.
