Labour Party, LP, in Nigeria has unveiled 1, 453 members Campaign Council for the 2023 elections.
The LP National Chairman, Mr Julius Abure stated this while addressing a press conference at the party’s headquarters in Abuja.

The party had released a list of 1,234 Campaign Council, but it was greeted with mixed reactions.
The National Chairman added that the new list which would be inaugurated on Friday captured many of those committed to working with the Party’s Presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi.
Mr Abure also said that “the new list and the various committees of the campaign council would be inaugurated on Friday, preparatory to the official commencement of the Campaign in Nasarawa State on Saturday.”
Mr Abure called for unity of purpose to bring about good leadership, urging “those that are not on the list to continue the work they have been doing.
He said; “The Council will be leading the campaign and we are sure Nigerians will support us to win the election and provide the required leadership the country needs.”
The committee is still led by a retired Assistant Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Zarewa, as chairman while Doyin Okupe, a former media aide to President Olusegun Obasanjo remained Director General of the campaign Council.
