Some Labour Party (LP) leaders in the South-west states have switched their support to the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, saying the party has become a shaky platform. Omotoso Banjo, who is the chairperson of the South-west branch of the party, led the group to address a press conference in Akure on Monday. He said the LP in the region had collapsed its structure into the support groups of Mr Tinubu ahead of the 25 February presidential election.
The Secretary of the LP in Ondo State, Omowumi Olosola, also announced her defection at the event, along with other party members. “Labour Party presently is a shaky platform for anybody to contest. Labour Party is a failed platform for anybody to contest. I don’t know Peter Obi and I am less concerned about him but I am concerned about those who are celebrating the Labour Party mediocrity within Nigeria,” Mr Omotoso said.
“In view of this, we leaders of the Labour Party in the South-west have decided to leave the party because we have a lot of mediocrity there and what they are looking for is money, they are not ready to serve Nigeria. “Labour Party is not ready to serve Nigeria, that is why we decided to leave the party and come to the APC. I collapsed the structure of the party in Ekiti State. So, I don’t know how Obi can come now and embarrass us here in the South-west.
“We are the pillars of that party in the South-west, and to the glory of God Almighty, we have pulled down the structure today. ” I was so surprised to hear from the DG of the party, Akin Osuntokun, we don’t know him in Labour Party, Osuntokun is representing his own personal interest. “So, Osuntokun we don’t know you and it is better you come back to the APC and work for Bola Tinubu. “We are leaving and collapsing the Labour Party structure in the entire South-West through the Senator Dayo Adeyeye into APC.” The former Minister of State for Works and the National Coordinator of the Southwest Agenda for Asiwaju, SWAGA 2023, Dayo Adeyeye, while receiving the decampees, said their move was a boost to the APC in the region.

Lol, Desperation wan kill Tinubu. Labour Party membership card na plastic sha. Anybody can mass produce these papers and tear them. As for the Labour party man that spoke, it was since last year that he was paid to bring in fighting into the party and divide it but it didn't work. I hope that you guys have not forgotten when they said that they have another presidential candidate via a parallel primaries? Desperation wan kill Tinubu, but that is where it ends. Nigeria as a whole has rejected a shaky man to be their President. 11 days to go !

I will use my wife to bet!!! if tinubu no win make una carry her go
You already told us that your wife has a protruding stomach so I am not surprised that you wish to do away with her. But I wonder, If you could devalue her in a public space like this, how then can we agree that you value Nigeria?

Awolowo was a good president Nigeria never had. Murtala Muhammad was killed six months into office. Dele Idiagbon was toppled a year and six after seizing power despite the fact that he was doing well, though very strict. Each time Nigeria is given a good leader, he is never allowed to be in power. This is why I think Peter obi will be prevented to become president. If even he won APC and PDP will make sure that he doesn’t Deliver

You are right.But the difference is that those good leaders you mentioned(You omitted Abiola), fought alone. This time, Obi wont fight alone. All Nigerians will be Presidents through him.
