Peter Obi postpones Ekiti, Ondo presidential rallies

Presidential candidate of the Labour Party Peter Obi has postponed his campaign rallies scheduled to hold in Ekiti and Ondo.

The party said in a brief statement on Wednesday that the postponement was unavoidable due to unusual circumstances beyond its control.

The party, however, promised to announce new dates for its rally in the states.

The statement read, “Due to some unavoidable and unusual circumstances beyond control, our earlier scheduled presidential campaign rally in Ekiti and Ondo for 15th and 16th December 2023 are hereby postponed. A new date will be announced. We regret the inconvenience caused by this.”

This comes a day after Obi and his running mate, Baba Ahmed-Datti, moved their campaign train to Kogi State.

The rally held in Kogi on Tuesday had been announced to hold on October 23. Other rallies scheduled for October that failed to hold included the ones meant for Niger, Kwara, Bayelsa, Rivers and Cross River.

The party has also failed to stage the rallies scheduled for November in Kaduna, Kano, Jigawa, Katsina, and Sokoto states.
