Peter Obi, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has said that he will resign from the party if anyone can prove he took any form of donation from the Labour Party.

The former Anambra governor made this known in an exclusive interview on Nevon Media hosted by Oseni Rufai.

He was reacting to an allegation that he and human rights activist, Aisha Yesufu, siphoned Labour Party’s donations for the 2023 general elections.

“I don’t go by people talking nonsensical and listen to them. He said that we took from Labor Party’s account 10 billion naira or $30 million. Where is the account?

“I’m going to include every accuser very soon in the list of the people I want to come out and prove that I took money from the Labour Party’s account or any financial mismanagement allegation.

“Look, if anyone can prove that I took 1% of Labour Party’s donations, I will stop campaigning,” Obi said.
