Labour Party Supporters March For Obi-Datti, Ekene

Thousands of supporters of the Labour Party (LP) in Kaduna State yesterday took to the major roads in a solidarity health walk for the presidential candidate, Peter Obi, his running mate, Datti Baba Ahmed and the candidate of the party for Chikun/Kajuru Federal Constituency, Hon. Ekene Abubukar Adams.

The supporters who came out in a large number with branded  T-Shirts, face caps, mufflers and other items chanted various songs in support of the Obi/Datti movement and Ekene door- to-door campaign groups.

Most of the supporters who spoke said the country requires genuine change and that they were ready to carry the campaign to every part until the old set of politicians are shown the way out in 2023, adding that it is no longer going to be business as usual.

The movement’s proposed two million man March on October 1 to commemorate Nigeria’s 62nd  independence anniversary had earlier been postponed, but they still turned out to declare support for the candidates yesterday.

Speaking with journalists during the event, the candidate for Chikun/Kajuru Federal Constituency, Hon. Ekene, said the program was tagged Ekene for Obi movement group with the mandate to sensitise people at the grassroots and ensure that Nigerians do not make another mistake in 2023.

Ekene who also flagged off his campaign said politics is not a job but a call to service, stressing that their leaders alongside other LP candidates were out to rescue Nigerians from slavery.

He noted that a better Nigeria is possible with the candidacy of Obi, while reiterating that the movement is a force that cannot be stopped.

Chairman of all the support groups for the Peter Obi movement in Kaduna State, Chief Morrison Ikpeanaeze, said he was elated to see people from all walks of life gracing the peace walk despite the fact that nobody gave them any money.
