Bawu said the LP lacked structure at ward, local, and State levels, hence their decision to defect to PDP.

He said: “We believe the LP is not strong enough to win a single seat in the North-East.

“We are officially declaring that all the North-East executives of Labour Party are defecting to PDP to support Atiku.

“We don’t want to waste our votes, and we want to use this time to mobilise votes to who has the capacity to win the election.”JAMB Result
