The Labour Party(LP) has denied planning to merger with the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) and  the New Nigeria People’s Party(NNPP).

 

The development is coming in the wake of media reports that the trio of Atiku Abubakar of PDP, Rabiu Kwankwaso of NNPP and Peter Obi of LP had opened a preliminary discussion on a possible merger with the ultimate goal of setting up a formidable platform that could unseat the ruling party.

Reacting in an interview with newsmen, LP  national secretary, Umar Farouk, said that there was no iota of truth in the report.

He disclosed that much as the Labour party respects the privacy of its presidential candidate to associate with anybody, it will never merge with any other political platform.

 

He, however, didn’t rule out the possibility of an alliance.

 

 

His words; “That is not true. I think it is the imagination of the writer. It has not come to us as a party. Whatever is going on, if at all it is true, Peter Obi is probably doing that as a candidate, which he has a right to do and associate with whoever he wants to associate with.

“But as a party, we are not thinking of a merger with any political party. And Labour Party will never merge with any party.

“Whatever the issue may be, we cannot take any decision until after the judgment of our election petition at the tribunal. But as a I mentioned earlier, count LP out of any merger with political parties. Alliance may be possible though,” he stated.
