A chieftain of the Labour Party (LP) in Edo State and a social crusader, Chief Patrick Osagie Eholor, has warned of dire consequences should the leadership of
the party deviate from the LP constitution to impose a governorship candidate on the state chapter of the party ahead of its primary election come February, 2024.
The human rights activist also took a swipe at those accusing him of inducement by the National Chairman of the party, Julius Abure, over his views, even as he challenged such persons to come with evidence of his compromise if there was any.“Anything short of the party’s constitution is illegal and will be resisted. We should be guided by the party’s constitution.
Meanwhile, the Edo State chairman of the Labour Party, Kelly Ogbaloi, when contacted on the development, denied knowledge of any plot to impose or adopt any candidate for the governorship election.
