A former national treasurer of the Labour Party (LP), Oluchi Oparah, has denied the allegation that former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, tampered with party funds during his 2023 presidential campaign.
Oparah said this in a television interview this Thursday, insisting that Obi personally financed his activities and even contributed financially to the party.
Oparah said he not only funded his campaign activities but even helped stabilize the party financially when he joined.
She also revealed that prior to Obi’s defection to the party, the Labour Party was heavily indebted and unable to pay the salaries of its employees.
According to her, Obi met all the financial requirements expected of him and even made donations to the party from his resources.
