WHY I IGNORED LABOUR PARTY CONVENTION — PETER OBI

Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party for 2023 elections has declared his stance on the recent national convention of the party that saw Barr Julius Abure emerge as Julius Abure emerge as national chairman.

Addressing Nigerians on X Space hosted by Parallel Facts on Friday, Peter Obi said he ignored the convention because the party leadership under Abure failed to do wide consultation with key stakeholders of the party before embarking on the said convention.The former Anambra Governor emphasised the need for the right thing to be done to salvage the party, adding that he is more passionate about building a new Nigeria than building a new Labour Party.

My question is does that convention subsist?
If so building Nigeria will be as good as building Labour Party. My reason is that Political Parties sponsors whoever will contest at any level according to our constitution as amended..
