We’re not merging with any political party – LP

The Labour Party (LP) has told Nigerians to reject rumours circulating that it was in talks to merge with a political party.

This was announced in a statement on Thursday in Abuja by Mr Obiora Ifoh, National Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party.

Ifoh said the story is just a news item that the media has sensationalised and manipulated to shame the party.

“A news organisation called for a reaction as regards to Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s proposal for opposition political parties to work together to fight against the one-party system in Nigeria.

“In my reaction, I said that it was only a proposal and every Nigerian should be interested in making democracy work and that what we have presently is an autocracy.
