    Labour Party Has Turned Into An Orphanage For Homeless Politicians, says Omoyele Sowore.

    Omoyele Sowore, a Nigerian publisher, has taken a shot at Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate.
    Sowore claimed in a video posted to his social media page that the Labour Party has turned into an orphanage for homeless politicians, and that Peter Obi joined the party quickly.

    Sowore claimed that the Labour Party should not have someone like Peter Obi in its ranks, citing the former Anambra State Governor’s handling of a 13-month workers’ strike.

    Peter Obi left the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, according to the publisher, because they outplayed him in transactional politicking.

    Omoyele Sowore, a Nigerian publisher, has taken a shot at Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate.
    Sowore claimed in a video posted to his social media page that the Labour Party has turned into an orphanage for homeless politicians, and that Peter Obi joined the party quickly.

    Sowore claimed that the Labour Party should not have someone like Peter Obi in its ranks, citing the former Anambra State Governor’s handling of a 13-month workers’ strike.

    Peter Obi left the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, according to the publisher, because they outplayed him in transactional politicking.

    “I said the Labour Party had turned into an orphanage for homeless politicians,” he said. “It didn’t take Peter long to run there when he became homeless.” The reason Peter Obi left the PDP was because they outplayed him with transactional politicking, and Labour should not have such a man in its ranks, someone who managed 13 months of strike, workers strike in Anambra state.

    “Can you tell me where the Labour Party’s organizational structure is?” You should consider this: in 2019, the Labour Party presidential candidate received 5000 votes, while I received 33,000 votes, implying that the structure that delivered 33,000 votes is likely to be better and larger than the structure that received 5000 votes.
