Scanty crowd was recorded today, December 13, at the flag-off of the Labour Party (LP) mega rally in Lokoja, the Kogi State capital.
In attendance were the party’s Presidential candidate, Peter Obi and his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed. Other party chieftains and officials were also in attendance, with several empty seats at the venue.
Report reaching us said that the expectations that there would be a massive turnout at the rally were punctured by obviously low turnout of supporters.
The state Chairman of the LP, Suleiman Abdul Ahmed, had raised an alarm that Governor Yahaya Bello‘s government was frustrating the party, denying it the usage of the Lokoja Confluence Stadium for the rally.
