LP denies Okonkwo’s claims of APC influence

The Labour Party (LP), on Friday, vehemently denied claims that its national chairman, Julius Abure, is advancing the interests of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The LP’s national publicity secretary, Obiora Ifoh, dismissed allegations made by Kenneth Okonkwo, a former LP presidential campaign spokesperson.

Okonkwo had claimed during ann interview on Arise TV that the APC would choose the LP’s 2027 presidential candidate, labeling the LP as the APC’s “housemaid.” However, Ifoh described these claims as “calculated attempts to distract” the party leadership.
