2023 Presidential Election Should Be Cancelled - Labour Party

The Labour Party (LP) Presidential Campaign Council has denied claims that its members were responsible for the campaigns of calumny in the polity.

Naija News reports that the Chief Spokesperson of the campaign council, Yunusa Tanko, claimed that the APC has consistently attacked LP members and supporters in Lagos and other states in the country.

The LP chieftain asserted that it was despicable that the ruling party would have the guts to accuse others of a crime that has been elevated into its code of conduct.

He advised the ruling party to concentrate on selling itself to Nigerians and addressing the various forgery scandals against its presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, instead of making false allegations

Tanko said: “This is the same APC, a party which has gained notoriety for verbal and physical attacks on supporters of the Labour Party.

“Our advice to the APC is for it to concentrate on selling itself to the voting public and addressing its various forgery scandals instead of making false allegations.

“It is the same APC that has consistently attacked LP members and supporters in Lagos and other states that are talking. Is it not the same APC that sent thugs to stop eligible voters from collecting their PVCs in parts of Lagos?

“Is it not the same party that has launched a threat campaign against innocent traders they suspect are sympathetic to our party and presidential candidate?

“Every reasonable Nigerian is aware that the LP has been running a descent issue-based campaign devoid of name calling and attacks.

“It may interest Nigerians to know that our woman leader in Southern Kaduna was shot and killed in her home by suspected assassins. The news is all over the place. We implore the APC-led Government to wake up to its responsibilities to prevent a bad situation from getting worse than it is.”
