People sometimes after an election get offended and it can always happen so, I can assure you that there is a lot of progress that we have made today,\u201d Otti said.<\/p>\n<p>Also speaking at the event, the National Chairman of the LP, Julius Abure, said they were in Abia to discuss the outcome of the primary elections with Otti and leaders of the party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe just concluded our party primaries in Edo and its fallout is what you see us dealing with today under the leadership of His Excellency the Governor of Abia State.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe were able to bring most of the aspirants together with the candidate in order to have a formidable force that would go into the campaign. I am sure all the gray areas that the aspirants were having have been sorted out today. I\u2019m sure that we are coming out more united, we are coming out stronger and will be able to face the challenges in Edo,\u201d Abure said.<\/p>\n<p>He dismissed the rumour of internal crises in the party, saying, \u201cI must make it clear that the internal crises you talked about is overblown.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApart from the issue we had with the National Treasurer, I think that we have no other internal matter. All other ones we\u2019ve been having are external and we have dealt with it sufficiently.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Abure commended the performance of LP\u2019s only governor, Alex Otti in Abia, maintaining that members of the party would remain undaunted by harassments they suffer.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the Labour Party governorship candidate in Edo State, Olumide Akpata, said the party would capitalize on the Abia governor\u2019s performance to emerge victorious in the governorship election.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
