The Nenadi Usman-led Labour Party in Rivers State has officially collapsed its structure into the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Chairman of the party, Gogo Wellington, disclosed this alongside other party stalwarts at a press conference on Monday.
Wellington urged all members of the party and the Obidient Movement in Rivers State to channel all their support to the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.
Obi, who is a member of the coalition of opposition leaders plotting to unseat President Bola Tinubu in 2027, recently defected to ADC, the party adopted by the coalition.
Speaking to party members on Monday, Wellington urge LP supporters “in the 23 local government areas of Rivers State to join our leader, Mr Peter Obi in the African Democratic Congress, ADC.
“The deteriorating situation of our economy, worsening insecurity have made it evident that the time to rescue this nation is now or never.
“We call on all members of Obidient Movement to join the coalition for a better Nigeria.”
