The party just blow one time... Tinz dey happen sha o

The party would also die a natural death as the contest for power continues.
The many people who have won under LP are wolves in sheep's clothing who have moved into the party from PDP/APC/APGA, few from SDP.

Many would decamp because the party doesn't have anything to use to hold party members down, I forsee a national leadership tussle once the euphoria of elections die down.

There would be contentions from the Igbo/christian elements to take over the party it is inevitable as there is a major influx and the major areas of influence are Igbo people.

It is possible more disgruntled individuals from NC i.e Ortom, Dogara may move and cause challenges to the current leadership which lacks political clout.

Their conflict of interest in their relationship with NLC, the mass hysteria of populism and Obi savior complex would be their downfall.

Obi I don't see overturning thie election in court no matter the desires of his supporters pigs wouldn't fly, with that a successful Tinubu first term may yield an APC victory in 2027 and return of power to the north after that, in 16years the nature of politics in Nigeria I pray would have moved past the savior complex & cult of personality of a Buhari, Atiku, Obi Asiwaju etc which doesn't bode well for LP

Na Tinubu, the strategist

He founded it in 2007, so that Obi will decamp to it in 2022, then he will go on to win the election

According to Reno Omokri and urchins who said Tinubu is the brain behind Peter Obi movement to LP
Lol. The fact is Tinubu made some strategic moves. One is the emergence of Kwankwaso

Because the hatred of Igbos by some has made it impossible for them read

The Igbo appropriated National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons, NCNC of Herbert Macaulay in 1946 after his death. The Igbo appropriated Nigerian Peoples Party, NPP, of Alhaji Waziri Ibrahim in 1979, forcing him out of the party he invested so much much in. He later went on to found Great Nigeria Peoples Party, GNPP. Now, the Igbo have again appropriated Labour Party founded by Nigerian Labour Congress. They founded APGA but could not nurture it into being a national party as the Yoruba did Alliance for Democracy, AD! Their current messiah ran on APGA platform but left suddenly to contest an election on the platform of PDP, imagine! They almost snatched PDP from President Jonathan. They named him Ebele Azikiwe and generally became the Lords of the Manor during his presidency. They cannot start a thing and follow it to a fruitful end. This people!

It was previously a PDP low budget party occupied by PDP members but now fully occupied by Ipob miscreants..

That said, no room for that Yoruba hater and Ipob terrorist, Chinedu Rhodes..

Go and elect him in your Ipob region!

Please o who is the founder of present labour party in nigeria? Because some people keep saying it's an igbo party so who's the founder?



https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Labour_Party_(Nigeria)#:~:text=The%20Labour%20Party%20(LP)%20is,democratic%20political%20party%20in%20Nigeria..

On 27 May 2022, the party's membership and support increased drastically as Asiwaju Tinubu smartly manipulated the naive former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, to become flag bearer of Labor Party as strategy to drain competition and use Obi to deny PDP from putting up a strong fight in 2023 Presidential election, which Tinubu won.

That’s not true. All what we are saying happen 2007. He resign and left PDP for Olusegun Agagu when he was vying for second term. He went to Labour and won the election but was rigged to favour Agagu. Mimiko reclaim his mandate in court and later decamped but he won his first term election under Labour

It was registered by NLC but to me that party is more or less an affiliate to PDP.
Most of the contestant in LP party have always decamped from PDP whenever there is internal crises in PDP but they will later go back to PDP after they achieved their goal.

The 1st ever Governor in LP in person of Dr Olusegun Mimiko decamped to LP from PDP, he won the Governorship election in Ondo state.

After Mimiko 8 years tenure he decamped to PDP again.
Another candidate I think Olusola Oke (not sure though) also decamped from PDP to LP to run for the gubernatorial election in ondo state after Mimiko tenure.

In short, all the aspirants in LP always come from PDP when there is crisises and they usually go back after the drama.

Mimiko of ondo state, Olusola Oke , Micheal opeyemi bamidele of ekiti, Peter Obi of anambra , Gbedebo RV of Lagos among others they all belong to PDP

Labour Party got the first national recognition through Mimiko and he performed wonderfully well throughout his 8 years tenure.


What about Osho baba in Edo state?

Check the records. He was denied governorship ticket under PDP in 2007 and he then decamped to LP where he got the governorship ticket and won.

People are acting like LP is a new party.

This is a party that had produce a two term state governor before..

They have structures in place. Maybe the structure need some oiling, but don't tell me LP doesn't have structure

Do you actually understand what they meant by structures? I don't think you do.
Take for instance, LP has no ward excos in many wards, no local excos in many local govts, even at states level, you may even see one or two states where they don't have excos grin grin grin. That's what they meant by structures
