Obi refuted the claims during a press conference held in Abuja on Thursday morning while speaking on the state of the nation.
The former Anambra State Governor stated that no agreements or collaborations have been reached with any party.
Instead, he called on all Nigerians to come together in preparation for the 2027 elections, urging a unified effort to challenge the ruling All Progressives Congress.
He said, “There are no merger talks with any party at this moment.
“We must focus on unity and collective action to bring about the change Nigerians desire.”
Also, Obi expressed deep concerns over the country’s deteriorating security situation, describing it as tragic.
He stressed the urgent need for comprehensive measures to address the escalating insecurity across Nigeria.
