Labour Party Expresses Outrage as Obedient Movement Endorses APC Okpebholo.

The Edo State chapter of the Labour Party has expressed strong disapproval of the ‘Obidient’ movement’s decision to support the All Progressives Congress (APC) gubernatorial candidate, Monday Okpebholo, in the upcoming state election.

According to Sam Uruopa, the Labour Party’s Publicity Secretary, this move is both astonishing and illogical.Uruopa criticized the ‘Obidient’ movement’s apparent inconsistency, pointing out that some members had previously claimed to support Asue Ighodalo, while others are now backing Okpebholo.

He deemed this flip-flopping as absurd and questioned the movement’s true intentions and values.

“The Obidient movement is synonymous with the Labour Party and are integral members of the party.

“They have forgotten so soon how the party was denied the use of the Sam Ogbemudia Stadium before the presidential election.

“So, how can these people now say they are Obidient members and they are supporting Okpebholo or Ighodalo?

“For me, they have run out of ideas and do not know what they are doing at this point. They cannot be Obidient movement and work against the party’s candidate, Olumide Akpata.”
