2027: We’re not in merger talk with anyone, we’ll stand alone – Labour Party

The Labour Party has said it is not in any merger talk with any political party ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Special Adviser to Nenadi-Usman, the Interim National Chairman of the Labour Party, Ken Asogwa, made this known on Tuesday during an interview on Arise Television.

Asogwa said the Labour Party will stand alone in the forthcoming general elections as it did in 2023.

He said, “In 2027, we hope to contest that election as a standalone political party.

“We participated in the 2023 election as a standalone political party and Nigerians trusted us with their votes.

“We gathered more than 6 million votes. It was a shocker to the nation. There were some mistakes we realized that didn’t make us win that election.

“Some of those bottlenecks are being corrected now. So we believe that when those things are properly fixed, Labour Party will be in a position in the coming elections.”
