By Matthew Atungwu
The Labour Party (LP) has advised Nigerians to reject rumors circulating that it was in talks to unite with a political party.
This was announced in a statement on Thursday in Abuja by Mr. Obiora Ifoh, National Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party.
Ifoh said that the story is just a news item that the media has sensationalized and manipulated in order to shame the Party.

“A news organization called for a reaction as regards Alhaji Atiku Abubakar’s proposal for opposition political parties to work together to fight against one-party system in Nigeria.
“In my reaction, I said that it was only a proposal every Nigerian should be interested in making democracy work and that what we have presently is an autocracy.
“There was nowhere in the response that the purported merger between LP and PDP was mentioned,” he said.
