The Labour Party (LP) was founded out of rage, according to Bode George, a prominent member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
According to George, LP lacks the necessary organisation to win national elections.
Speaking to reporters, he urged Peter Obi, the 2023 LP presidential contender, to rejoin the PDP.

George claims that the Labour Party lacks a foundation. I have travelled to every state in the union; you will never be unaware of our party’s existence anywhere because it embodies Nigeria in its entirety.
“There is no firm foundation for the LP; it was a trend. LP didn’t have the same roots as us; it was born out of rage. LP is a breeze. Obi was where? If he wants to, we can still speak with him.
“There is not a trace of tribalism in my lineage. In our country’s political process, and particularly within this party where some of us have suffered greatly for the cause of equality and justice for all, I stand to fight for inclusivity for all Nigerians.
“Since PDP is the only genuine national party, we as party leaders must not cater to ethnic affiliation.”
