Kogi Election: Labour Party denies collapsing structures for APC

The Labour Party has reiterated its denial of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) claim that their governorship candidate has transferred support to APC’s Ahmed Usman Ododo.

Speaking to newsmen in Lokoja on Sunday, Idakwo Emmanuel, the State Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party, dismissed the notion as mere propaganda.

He asserted that the party’s organizational framework and its members remain firmly in place.

He further said that the established parties are pushing these propagandas because they are worried about the organic movement the Labour Party is enjoying in the state.

He said,

Some time ago before the presidential election, we saw such a rumour making the rounds, last month the same rumour, and just yesterday we had the same set of individuals in photos making such rounds.

Stating that the Labour Party remained focused on emerging the winner in the forthcoming election, Emmanuel said that the party’s manifesto is void of ethnic or religious sentiments, both bordering on the real issues affecting the lives of Kogi indigenes.
