A staunch member of the Labour Party in Enugu State, Chief Ogochukwu Onyema, has hinted that he might switch over to to the Social Democratic Party (SDP) should the former LP presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi move over to the party.

Onyema, a former senatorial aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Enugu West, described the SDP as an “emerging party.”

He disclosed this during an interview in Enugu,saying that the party has a constitution that does not allow its members to go to court.

The Ohanaeze chieftain used the opportunity to applaud Gov. Peter Mbah of Enugu State over his vis giant strides, saying that he is doing well.

He described Mbah as his friend because he has the same proactive disposition like himself and lauded him for many development projects he has embarked on.

He described Mbah as a proactive leader and lauded his leadership style and choice of projects. “If you want me to tell you about His Excellency, Ndubisi Mbah, I say to you that whoever does the way I do, I’ll call my good friend. I admire his leadership style and each time I see his choice of projects, I smile within myself. I say this is a proactive man. This man is a man of strategic thinking. This is a man that is futuristic,” he praised.

“I was in PDP when we won the election that produced Peter Mbah and I said I am leaving PDP. I said they should not give me an appointment, let me chart my own course,” he said.

Onyema who would not overtly disclose his ambition for 2027 said that he was disappointed several times in PDP when he unsuccessfully tried thrice to go to the House of Representatives as well as Senate to no avail, without securing nomination to consummate his ambition.

Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, has defended the purchase of sports utility vehicles (SUVs) for members of the national assembly.

There have been reports that the leadership of the 10th national assembly has bought SUVs for all lawmakers.

Each SUV is said to be valued at N160 million.

The LP had asked members of the party in the national assembly to kick against “wastage”.

While responding to questions during a press conference in Abuja on Monday, the former governor of Anambra said the SUVs are not personal cars of the lawmakers, noting that they are for official use.

“Let me start with the issue of Labour Party members in the house. I have actually discussed this issue with them,” Obi said.

“Surprisingly, I can tell you I heard that these vehicles are official cars. They have to use it. It is meant for office.

“So it is not as if it is their vehicle. They said it is official cars and you are meant to use it while you are in the senate.”

Obi also hinted at contesting for the country’s number one position in 2027, adding that Nigeria deserves dedicated and visionary leaders who will lead the country towards a brighter future.
