Mr Jonathan Asake, the Kaduna State gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party in Saturday’s election, said he would not step down or form any alliance with any political party.
Speaking during a press conference in Kaduna, Asake called on all supporters of the party to disregard any form of rumours doing the rounds, continue supporting the Labour Party, and vote it into power in the state.
He re-affirmed his party’s commitment to winning the gubernatorial election, assuring stakeholders that all the necessary machinery had been put in place to protect the party’s mandate by insisting that every vote counts, was protected and to ensure the correct result was submitted to INEC on Saturday.
He said, “I have made my campaigns in all the nooks and crannies of the 23 local government areas of Kaduna state. I have made my consultations, and I am ready for Saturday’s election and convinced to be elected to change the narratives in the state for a better society.”
He said addressing the press conference became pertinent following the rumours on social media that the party was forming an alliance.
He explained that it was pure lies fabricated to undermine the Labour Party and his candidature, alleging that he had no alliance with nor was he stepping down for any other gubernatorial candidate in the coming election.
Asake reiterated that the labour party in the state was on a mission to salvage the state from bad leadership, insecurity and insensitivity to the plight of the citizens and give a purposeful leadership that would be acceptable to all.
