He added: “The Labour Party is a national party and is not a cult group where people will be restricted from joining.”
While emphasising that every Nigerian is free to join the party, the Deputy Governor noted: “Even Mr President, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, can decide, on or before the 2027 elections, to join the Labour Party, and we will gladly accept him.
