The Labour Party presidential candidate for the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi, on Thursday said the party will give a transparent account of funds realised during the campaign process.
This is coming amid the fresh crisis that has rocked the party over sales of forms and other fundraising activities for the 2023 general elections in the country, with the LP’s National Treasurer, Oluchi Opara, asked the party’s National Chairman, Julius Abure, to account for N3.5bn raised from the sale of nomination forms and fundraising activities in the build-up to the 2023 general elections.
Amid that development, Peter Obi, today also put out a statement which was shared on his Twitter (X) account where he revealed he will be embarking on a “Thank You” tour to appreciate his supporters, not only that, but will also show those who donated to his campaign the success they achieved. The tweet from Peter Obi reads
“We will also show our donors the very visible success we achieved by the judicious management of their resources despite having less than 20 percent of our budget to work with”
After that statement from the Labour Party presidential candidate, here are some reactions below.
