Former Director-General of Peter Obi Presidential Campaign Organisation, Doyin Okupe, has said LP’s inability to build an enduring structure after the 2023 elections is the reason for the wave of defections from the party.
Okupe said this to newsmen, saying that even Labour Party (LP)’s presidential candidate in 2023, Peter Obi, might also defect from the party.
He says that the mass defections from LP are expected, as elected members would not stay in a party where the future is not assured.
Recall that six LP lawmakers and many ordinary members recently defected from the party.
