“There is no faction in LP, but in the imagination of those who are foot soldiers of enemies of Nigeria and Nigerians. The leadership and members of the Nigeria Labour Congress has recognised and endorsed the candidacy of Obi.
He added that the LP is accepted by majority of Nigerians who crave credible political leadership and see it as the only credible alternative to give Nigerians the president they desperately need to salvage Nigeria.
