PDP crisis: Fayose carpets Atiku, names Peter Obi new voice of opposition in trending interview

In an interview on Channels TV Politics Today aired on Sunday, October 13, Fayose stated that Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s flagbearer in the 2023 presidential election, has become the voice of the opposition, surpassing his PDP’s counterpart, Atiku Abubakar.
