Following the endorsement of the People’s Democratic Party’s Governorship Candidate in Rivers State, Siminialayi Fubara, the Labour Party has sacked its State Chairman, Mr Deinye Pepple.
The spokesperson for the Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Organization, Mr Kenneth Okonkwo, disclosed this via his official Twitter handle that the Executive Committee of Rivers State have been dissolved with immediate effect.
Okonkwo cited gross anti-party activities and corruption in the management of Labour Party funds as a major reason for the dissolution of the executive.

“Comrade Julius Abure has dissolved the Labour Party State Executive Council of Rivers State with immediate effect for gross anti-party activities and corruption in the management of Labour Party funds.

“The National Chairman believes that it is in the interest of Labour Party and the Obidient movement in Rivers State that those who were at the helm of affairs in Rivers State when our presidential mandate was openly stolen,” he said.

Okonkwo, who said the National Chairman had lost confidence in Pepple, declared:”The National Chairman has lost confidence in the ability of the compromised State Executive Council led by Mr Deinye Pepple to lead the campaign for the gubernatorial and State House of Assembly elections come March 11th.

“ He urges all Obidients in Rivers State to disregard every comment made by the disgraced State Chairman of the Labour Party, Deinye Pepple, on the election of March 11th and reiterates the full backing of the Labour Party on the candidacy of Comrade Beatrice Itubo of the Labour Party as the next Governor of Rivers State.

“He, therefore, enjoins all Obidients to come out massively on March 11th to vote for Comrade Beatrice Itubo of Labour Party.”

Persecondnews earlier reported that Dienye Pepple and some local government party chairmen on Tuesday declared and drummed support for Siminialayi Joseph Fubara from the Southeast Senatorial district of the state in the upcoming gubernatorial poll.

“Voting a Riverine candidate in the person of ‘Sir. Siminialayi Joseph Fubara from the South East Senatorial district of the State during the upcoming
gubernatorial polls ensures that the Labour Party and her members are defenders and ambassadors of the values that have set her and the Obidient Movement apart from all other parties.

“We urge all Labour Party members, supporters and our Obideint team to come out in their numbers on Saturday 11th March 2023 to vote Sir.

“Siminialayi Joseph Fubara from the South East senatorial District of Rivers State for Governor, and vote all other Labour Party Candidates for State House of Assembly in their various constituencies,” he added.
