Atiku said that he did not foresee any issues if Obi wished to hold talks with the PDP about forming an alliance for future elections. Obi was Atiku’s running mate in the 2019 presidential election, but this time around, both men were running for the PDP ticket before Obi defected to the LP.

Atiku came second in the presidential election behind Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC), while Obi came third. The two candidates are currently heading to court to contest the official results released by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Speaking on the possibility of forming an alliance with Obi, Atiku said, “I don’t think we will have any problem if he wants to dialogue with PDP, either to form an alliance or not.” He expressed confidence that the PDP and Obi would be able to work together effectively if they decided to form an alliance.
