 Labour Party's presidential candidate Peter Obie has given the reason he did not tell the former vice president Atiku Abu Bakar before he dumped the People's Democratic Party PDP. Obiewu confirmed that Tiku's statement of not being aware of his decision to dump the party until three days after said that the reason he did not inform him was that he didn't want anyone to talk him out of it. He also said that Atiku remains his respected elder brother but that he would rather do the right thing and fail than do the wrong thing and succeed.
