Presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 Presidential election, Omoyele Sowore, has mocked the Labour Party and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, stating that the party has become an orphanage for politicians that are homeless.
In a video making the rounds on social media, Sowore stated that the Labour Party secured a mere 5000 votes during the last election, compared to him who polled a total of 33, 000 votes.
“Labour Party has become an orphanage for politicians that are homeless. It didn’t take long before our man ran there when he became homeless. Labour Party should have not in its company somebody who managed 13 months of workers strike in Anambra. The reason Obi left PDP was because they outplayed him with transactional politiking.
“Where is the structure of Labour Party? You should ask yourself. In 2019, the Labor Party presidential candidate got 5000 votes. I was allocated 33, 000 votes. So, even if you want to look at structure, a structure that delivered 33, 000 votes is probably better than that of 5, 000.”
Sowore asked Peter Obi what he did in Anambra state when he was governor. He asked if the former governor built hospitals and schools in the state, He accused Peter Obi of lying to the electorates ahead of the 2023 election.
