The opposition Labour Party (LP) yesterday received former Edo State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship aspirant, Barrister Ken Imansuangbon, into its fold amidst jubilation.

Imansuangbon had on Tuesday in a letter addressed to the state chairman of the party copied to his  ward, Esan South East  local government  area chairman of the party respectively resigned his membership of the PDP.

The Edo politician in company of his wife, Mrs Kate Imansuangbon and a large number of supporters, stormed the National Secretariat of the party in Abuja where he was received by the national leadership.

Imansugbon who was received into the party by the Julius Abure led executives  showered praises on the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi and his running mate, Ahmed Datti, for championing the cause of a new and better Nigeria, noting that they remained president and vice president in the minds and hearts of Nigerians.

He said the Labour party had come to stay and would continue to give fresh hope and leadership to the Nigerian people who he noted had been pauperised by the APC and PDP.

The philanthropist popularly referred as the ‘rice man’ in Edo State and across described his 20 year sojourn in the APC and PDP as full of pains and deceit.

He said; “I want to thank the Labour party for this opportunity and for giving Nigerians fresh hope. My political history is well known. I ran to PDP but little did I know that I was running from frying pan to fire, PDP and APC are birds of the same feathers, they don’t love Nigerians but their pockets.

“I must also thank the youths of Nigerians who supported the Labour Party for what I failed to see in the Obidient and Datti movement.   Today, we know who the president is and he is in the minds of Nigerians.  The world is watching the courts and to see what they will do. This is the party for the Nigerian people, students and the very weak.”

He assured the leadership of the party that more people in Edo State were ready in the 192 political wards to join the Labour party.

National Chairman of the party, Barrister Julius Abure, while welcoming Imansuangbon, called on those still sitting on the fence to join the Labour party now in the movement to rescue Nigeria.

He said, “On behalf of the national leaders of the party, I heartily welcome you to the national secretariat. We are happy you joined the party to rescue Nigeria and Edo State.

“In the general elections our party provided the most viable alternative and our candidates were the best and that is why the people came out in their numbers to support the party. Just like what Ken said, it is clear to every Nigerian that we won the election.”

He promised that the party would offer equal opportunities to all irrespective of when they joined the party, adding that there is no godfather in the Labour Party.
