Chieftains of the Labour Party (LP) in Kaduna State, including candidates and aspirants in the 2023 general elections, as well acting state executive council members, met in Kaduna at the weekend, asking the party leaders at the state and national levels to give account of the 2023 campaign funds.
The party stakeholders who were led at the meeting by the state’s acting chairman, Alhaji Isa Ciroma, acting secretary, Sani Musa Sahabi and the senatorial candidates for Kaduna South and North, Engineer Mike Auta and Alhaji Sidi Bamali respectively, said their refusal to render accounts was not a sign of good leadership.
Addressing newsmen after the meeting, Alhaji Sidi Bamali, flanked by other chieftains, commended the presidential candidate of the party, Peter Obi, for rendering account of campaign funds that came through him and asked other party leaders at the state and national levels to follow suit.
The chieftains on the other hand berated Mr Peter Obi for his failure to hold post-election meetings with the party stakeholders, particularly frowning at Obi’s several visits to Kaduna State, without meeting with the party members and chieftains.
