Ahead of the 2023 elections, the Labour Party has said more
than five governors and other leaders are supporting its presidential
candidate, Peter Obi.
The Deputy National Chairman of the party, Bashiru Apapa
made this known in Ado Ekiti during a sensitisation programme for LP members at
the weekend.
Apapa, who said Obi’s presidential bid was daily receiving
overt and covert support across the nation, said the Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, and the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, are afraid of Obi’s recent
popularity.
Apapa, however, said the party will not mention the names of
the governors for now.
He said, “There are some people who you may not believe are
coming up to support Obi; some leaders up to heads of state are in support of
Obi.
“Many governors, more than five of them, are supporting the
party underneath. We don’t want to mention their names for now.
“It is because of the popularity of the LP now that
everybody is embracing the party; definitely, the APC and PDP are afraid.”
