“The people are tired of the current government, they (Nigerians) are tired of APC and PDP and they need a new Nigeria. The people have seen that Peter Obi and Labour Party represent the hope of the people, hence, the reason for the wide acceptability.
“As National Chairman of the party, I’m proud of Peter Obi and the party. I’m happy we’ve been able to show to Nigerians that we’ve alternative programmes that can change the economic woes of Nigeria.

“It is also an indication that by next month’s election, we will win and the party will be producing the next president of Nigeria, Peter Obi,” he said.
On reason for the dissolution of the existing Labour Party Chapter in the country, he said; “We have simply decided to change the leadership (Chief Matthew-led excos) and bring in a new leadership (Omorodion-led excos) that can bring all the support groups together in order to galvanise support for the party as expected”.
Meanwhile, some members of the party in Lagos have said the LP national chairman should be held responsible if Mr Peter Obi loses in the forthcoming election following the former’s complacency on party affairs in the State.
