Labour Party, Anambra State chapter has dismissed as false and misleading claim that the Party structure in the state has collapsed into the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Deputy Publicity Secretary, Linus Oguejiofor in a statement said the rumour was calculated political illusion aimed at confusing teeming supporters, to create artificial momentum for unpopular candidates.
He maintained that Anambra remained strong, united and fully intact adding that the party structure is not only operational but deeply committed to the mission of reclaiming the state for good governance.
The statement reads in part, “Our attention has been drawn to a recent claim that the Anambra State Labour Party structure has collapsed into the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
“This claim is not only false, it is also misleading and a calculated political illusion aimed at confusing our teeming supporters, to create artificial momentum for unpopular candidates.
“Let it be clearly stated that the Labour Party in Anambra remains strong, united and fully intact. Our party structure is not only operational but deeply committed to the mission of reclaiming Anambra for good governance.
“Our leader, HE Mr. Peter Obi, the face of hope and the symbol of a new Nigeria, remains firmly and rooted in the Labour Party.
“He will personally lead our governorship campaign, where he will stand solidly behind our candidate, Dr. George Moghalu, in the guber upcoming election.
“Any suggestion of a merger or a collapse is a fabrication born out of fear and desperation. It insults the political consciousness of Ndi Anambra and seek to distort the truth for cheap political advantage.
“We also wish to clarify that although the Labour Party is engaged in a national coalition for the 2027 general elections, this coalition does not affect our internal structures or governorship candidacy in Anambra State.
“Coalition agreements explicitly stated that political parties contesting off-cycle elections will maintain their full identity and field their own candidates.
“We call on our supporters to remain vigilant and beware of political merchants who are attempting to exploit the noble intentions of the coalition to mislead and sway the public.
“The George Moghalu Campaign Organization together with the Labour Party Anambra Chapter, urges the public to disregard these distractions and remain focused on the truth.
“Our campaign is built on transparency, service and the shared vision for a better Anambra. Together, we move forward, undaunted, united and unshaken.”
