Peter Obi, a former presidential candidate has called on members of the Labour Party to put away their differences and work together for harmony to thrive in the party.

Obi, the flagbearer of the party in 20203 made the call in a message on X stating that the party would emerge stronger and more united than ever.

Before his post, he said he had a "productive meeting with the NLC Political Commission today" to "encourage reconciliation and unity within our rank as Labour Party".

The former Anambra Governor stressed the need for the party to move on with a shared purpose and vision.

He expressed confidence that the party would overcome the current crisis through open communication, empathy, and willingness to listen.

“We will successfully resolve our differences and emerge stronger and more united than ever. Our strength lies in greater unity for our common national good.

“I reiterate my earlier appeal for us to put aside our differences and work together in a spirit of harmony and mutual understanding,” he said.
