Ogun 2019: Labour Party confirms talks with Amosun’s guber candidate
Labour Party (LP) in Ogun State on Monday said it may concede its gubernatorial ticket to Governor Ibikunle Amosun’s candidate, Adekunle Akinlade.
Akinlade lost the All Progressives Congress (APC) ticket to Dapo Abiodun.
Labour Party Chairman in the state, Abayomi Arabambi, spoke with one of our correspondent on Phone.
He confirmed ongoing talks between his party and the grieving Amosun-led bloc of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The Chairman explained that the party was still within the constitutional right to substitute the name before the electoral umpire’s deadline.
He said, “There is hope for Triple A (Akinlade) and others, the constitution allows for substitution and I think we are still in tandem but nobody would tell me we have pseudo names.
“What we are saying is that, it is open to all political parties, when you have some parameters being satisfied in your political party, you’re satisfied to substitute so far it is still within the window.
“In the next two weeks, we are going to reveal and unveil our candidate from Ipokia local government; we have so many good hands in Ipokia, we are going to Ipokia for our governorship, it is sealed, signed and delivered.”
