‘Labour Party More Interested In Voters’ Endorsement’

The publicity secretary of Labour Party (LP), in Enugu State, Comrade Ibuchukwu Ezike has said that the party is only interested in the endorsement of eligible voters for the 2023 governorship election in the state and not the endorsement of traditional rulers and religious leaders.

He was reacting to the alleged ongoing endorsement of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)Governorship flagbearer, Barrister Peter Mbah by traditional rulers and some religious leaders.

“let me say here without fear of favour or contradiction that the Labour Party is not disturbed by the endorsement of candidates, either by the traditional rulers or Church leaders or leaders of professional organizations or any other groups, etc.

“What will worry us is the support of Candidates of other parties by the Nigerian citizens who have acquired their voters’ cards and are, therefore, qualified to cast their votes for candidates of their choice in 2023.

Ibuchukwu maintained that Labour Party was not worried by the endorsement of people who may not have electoral values or that may not even vote in 2023.
