Former Ondo Governor, Mimiko Dumps Labour Party

The former governor of Ondo State , Olusegun Mimiko, has dumped the Labour Party for the Zenith Labour Party .The spokesman for the former governor , Eni Akinsola , who confirmed this during an interview with TheCable , said Mimko has joined the ZLP

According to Akinsola, Mimiko said he is bothered by the “ subtle hijack ” of LP by the All Progressives Congress ’ national chairman , Adams Oshiomhole , using the Nigeria Labour Congress leadership.

Akinsola said , “ Yes , he has left the Labour Party. Yesterday, he consulted with all his political structures across the state , and he updated them with fact , with what has been happening since he went to LP .

“ On the day he declared for the presidency , the NLC chairman said he was not wanted , one Omotosho claiming to be factional chairman of the Labour Party too claimed he was not welcome .

“ Like they say , once beaten , twice shy . Issues in PDP about who was the chairman then , who was not , made us lose Ondo state in 2016 , nothing else. I tell you now if we had time and opportunity to campaign like every other party, we would have won Ondo state but that is gone anyway .

“ The issue now is that Dr Mimiko is not ready to expose himself and his followers to such kind of things again . This same Omotosho went to Ilorin , Kwara state and promised to deliver 16 million votes to Buhari . ”
