The Chairman of the Zenith Labour Party, ZLP, in Oyo state, Comrade Wole Abisoye on Sunday dispelled rumour of merger between it and other opposition parties in the state.
Abisoye who came down hard on the Independent National Electoral Commission for its stoppage of the campaigns before Saturday’s election, said the statement was unconstitutional and should therefore be discarded.
Speaking with journalists at the Bodija, Ibadan residence of a former Governor of the state, Rashidi Ladoja, the ZLP chairman said, “neither the party, nor its leader, Senator Rashidi Ladoja, was in merger talks with any political party.”
While stressing that the party had done all that was necessary to claim victories in all elective offices in 2019, Abisoye said had the INEC not shifted last weekend polls, the ZLP would be in victory mood by now.
