The Labour Party has won the just-concluded Oji River State Constituency Supplementary Election, held on Saturday, April 15, 2023.
INEC had declared and returned LP’s candidate, Chief Osita Eze, winner of the supplementary election with 108 votes and already with over 300 votes outstanding ahead of other contestants. Reacting, Dr Mcginger Ibeneme, Spokesperson, Labour Party, Enugu State, said that it was a hard-fought victory for the Oji River people as well as the beginning of their total political emancipation.
