Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Delta State chapter of the Labour Party has disassociated itself from the reports making the rounds that it is negotiating with Governor Ifeanyi Okowa ahead of the March 11 governorship election in the state.<\/p>\n

State chairman of the Party, Tony Ezeagwu who spoke in an interview with NAN on Monday in Asaba said there is no iota of truth in the rumours.<\/p>\n

He said that the party and its teeming supporters in the state remained resolute in their determination to win the governorship election come March 11 and would never divert its support to any other party.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Labour Party in Delta held a meeting yesterday where we discussed the rumour making the rounds that our party candidate, Ken Pela is a stooge to Gov. Okowa.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe same rumour being peddled also alleged that my humble self has been settled with one million naira to surrender our support to the PDP.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, I want the general public to know that the Labour party in Delta has no business with Gov. Okowa, the PDP or any other party in the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a party, we have not discussed anything of such with Okowa, we have not even held any meeting with him and we don\u2019t intend to do so\u201d, Ezeagwu said.<\/p>\n

The chairman advised the public, and especially supporters of the Labour party to disregard the rumours, which he described as being far from the truth.<\/p>\n

According to him, the rumour is being peddled by persons who he said are envious of the popularity and general acceptance of the Labour party in the state.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cThey are only spreading these rumours to disabuse the minds of our people from voting for the Labour party because they are jittery about impending defeat in the hands of our party.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose spreading these rumours are simply terrified and afraid because they are being hunted by what the Labour party did to them at the last presidential election.\u201d<\/p>\n
