Nigerians should disregard opposition’s orchestrated propaganda that the “Labour Party, (LP) does not have polling agents in core northern states because we have more than enough volunteers across the country who have enlisted to be part of the take back Nigeria mantra”. Dr Yunusa Tanko, LP PCC spokesman disclosed in a StatementSunday.
Tanko who was reacting to an information allegedly released by the Independent National Electoral Commission stressed that the opposition parties had realised that their verbal attacks and misinformation hitherto peddled against His Excellency, Ex-Govermor Peter Obi had failed to yield the desired results hence the resort to the weekend rubbished the delibrate falsehoodabout LP not having agents for 90,000 booth in the North Central, Northeast and Northwest geopolitical zones of the country. “LP has foot soldiers scattered all over to man all polling units in the north and the entire nation.
“Opposition gimmicks to weaken the resolve of Nigerians to Vote Peter Obi and Datti Baba-Ahmed into power this year will not fly.
Below is the full text of the statement statement issued on Sunday by Dr Tanko;
“The attention of the Labour Party Presidential campaign council, (LPPCC) has been drawn to yet another deceitful information circulating in the social media to the effect that our party has not submitted agents for 90,000 Polling Units in North Central, Northeast and Northwest.
“We see this as yet another propaganda from the opposition to bring our rising influence down and deceive the electorates.
“We have volunteers all over the country that surpass even the number of agents required for each Polling booth so the issue of not being able to supply agents for 90,000 units is a complete fallacy designed by the enemies of progress in Nigeria.
“INEC gave a window of up to January 20th for political parties to submit their list of agents for the elections and as such cannot at this time raise concerns about any political Party not being able to submit enough agents.
“The Labour Party has a task force on the recruitment and selection of agents headed by our presidential candidate H.E. Peter Obi himself and his Vice, Datti, the National Chairman and the National Secretary of the party are all members of that committee.
“LPPCC is investigating the source of this propaganda because we know it is not definitely from the INEC.
“We appeal to the Obidient family and the teeming supporters of our party to disregard the deceitful information and focus on the collection of their PVCs which are our collective weapons to dislodge the enemies of our dear country.
