The Labour Party (LP) has denied any agreement to work with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara State for the forthcoming Governorship and House of Assembly elections.
The chairman of the party, Lanre Ajiboye, disclosed this during a telephone chat with Daily Trust on Sunday.
The PDP through its chairman, Babatunde Mohammed, on Thursday, had said the party was “working together with other opposition parties in Kwara to form an alliance to vote out the APC.”
But according to the LP chairman, Lanre Ajiboye, the party will contest the election and not be in alliance with any political party.
“The LP is going for the election and we have not discussed it with any party, no party has also discussed it with us. We are not against collaboration with any party but that directive should come from our national secretariat which is not the case now,” he added.
On his part, the SDP chairman in the state, Abdulazeez Afolabi, told our correspondent that “As of now, the PDP or anybody has not approached us for any alliance for the forthcoming election.”
