The state secretary of the party, Dr. Robert Ngwu, who announced the suspension and expulsion recommendation ratified by the State Executive Council, said the affected party members were involved in anti-party activities.

In another report, the candidate of the Labour Party in the just concluded presidential election, Peter Obi has claimed that the leaked audio of an alleged conversation between him and the founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo, is fake.

The audio allegedly had Obi telling Oyedepo that the presidential election was a religious war and that the clergyman should help him beg people in the South-West and Kwara State, especially Christians, to support his ambition.

Reacting, Obi, in a statement he personally signed on Wednesday, said at no point in his ‘issue-based campaign’ did he ever refer to the election as a religious war.

He also lamented alleged attempts by the ruling All Progressives Congress to divert ‘attention from our blatantly stolen mandate.’
