Ekiti Labour Party Dismisses Purported Collapse Of Structures Into APC

Ekiti Labour Party has dismissed the purported collapse of structures into APC.

Glamtush reports that the Labour Party (LP) in Ekiti State on Tuesday dismissed the purported collapse of the structures of the party in the South West to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

This online platform understands that LP State Chairman, Odunayo Okunade, said the said collapse of structures was untrue and “a failed plot to distract party faithful and the general public from their support for LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi.”

One Mr Banji Omotoso, had said on Monday that he, in his capacity as Southwest Chairman of the party, had led the entire LP structures in the geo-political zone to APC.

But the LP State chairman, in a statement in Ado Ekiti titled, ‘Banji Omotoso and his Cohorts are Unknown in LP’, said that those who paraded themselves as leaders of the party in Southwest were impersonators.

He said, “Our attention has been drawn to one Banji Omotoso’s claims that the South West LP has collapsed its structures in the zone to APC.

“This is not only untrue, but a vicious claim by dubious political vultures who are out to distract the Obedient movement in a bid to make unholy financial gains in camps that can accommodate them”.

“It must be noted that the LP came in contact with this shameless character when he came on board to use our platform and its ideologies for his selfish gains in 2020.
