THE attention of the Shine Your Eyes Group (SYEG) has been drawn to a recent statement purportedly made by the Edo State leadership of the Labour Party (LP) via its Publicity Secretary cum Image maker, one self-acclaimed Comrade Sam Uroupa.
Considering that the statement is coming from a jaundiced and disgruntled position, we thought it proper that it should not be given any notice. But the calls that we have received on the statement from different quarters within the LP and outside it has necessitated that we give it a precise response knowing that some people would unreasonably interprete non response from our end as agreeing to the unverifiable claims made by the LP leadership.
Taking the issue one after the other, one is at a loss why all of a sudden the Edo LP takes it upon itself to lay claim to knowing/recognizing the whole gamut of its members spread across the world. That’s to say the least, a no mean achievement for a party whose gubernatorial primaries held in February was marked with lots of cry of mix up of members names/identification which came to light on the D Day and which caused chains of reactions that the leadership swept under the carpet in the guise of trying to meet up with the INEC deadline.
