Members of Nigeria’s two majority parties, the Peoples Democratic Party and the All Progressives Congress, merged on Sunday in Imo North Senatorial District of Imo State to form the Labour Party and pledged their loyalty and support to its presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

Over 2,000 people joined the LP at a ceremony in the Umuaro community of Isiala Mbano Local Government Area, Imo state.

Chikwem Onuoha, a former Deputy Chief of Staff to a former governor of the state, stated that the decision was made after an investigation revealed that Obi was the best presidential candidate among other presidential candidates.

Onuoha, said that APC and PDP had misruled Nigeria for the past 23 years, adding that it was time Nigerians voted Obi to rescue the country.

The APC chieftain said, “Today, APC and PDP are dead in Okigwe zone. We have resolved to collapse our structures in the zone into the Labour Party and to work for the victory of Peter Obi. Peter Obi symbolises the hope of the ordinary people of Nigeria.

“Peter Obi is tested and trusted and he has the support of the people who vote during the election. Apart from Obi, we will vote LP all through. The Labour Party is for a mass movement. We are wiser and we want to take back our country.”

The President General of the Okigwe North Youth Progressives Forum, Chidinma Onyenagubo, said that his group was mobilising people to obtain their Permanent Voters Cards to vote for LP In 2023.
