Alhassan Bawu, the Campaign Director of the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi in Bauchi State, has left the party ahead of the forthcoming presidential election.

According to news reports, Bawu left the LP for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Bawu, who defected to the PDP along with other party officials in the Northeast, blamed the decision on a lack of LP structure at the State, local, and ward levels.
