How Comr. Kelly Ogbaloi  groomed, sustain Edo Labour Party over the years


 

By Osariemen Idiaghe 


Surviving many infamous  years in the political history of Nigeria,  Labour Party’s fame and  popularity sprang up and no doubt has tripled with majority of Nigerians aligning  with the party due to its ideology coupled with the personality of its Presidential Candidate, HE Peter  Greggory Obi.


This popularity spread like a wild fire across the Federation which led to the party winning the FCT in the last General Election with majority of its supporters in the South South and in Edo state, mostly confident that victory would come at the end of many litigations at the Tribunal.


In all of these fame,  Labour Party in Edo state led by Comrade Kelly Ogbaloi has worked tirelessly to  make the party appealing to Edo people to the point that it has become the most "sought after" bride in town.


Comrade Kelly with his team of Executive tenaciously held on to contributing their selfless services to the party and its members. Despite the burden of leadership which has posed series of  challenges of trying to carry everyone along, the party has remained strong and undivided.


Realizing the damage of loosing the trust of the People in the just concluded elections, opposition parties in order to destroy the fame of Labour Party have started sponsoring run away members of the party who jetted out of the party when the  road was rough. These 'Judas Iscariots' have resulted to  collecting money from opposition parties with the pledge to dislodge and destabilize the integrity of the party before the people.


Ahead of the Edo Local Government  and Governorship  Elections, these political jobbers now  allege corruption claims against the leadership of the Party, which means “give the dog a bad name in other to hang it”, This is a strategy they have deployed believing it will demarket the party before Edo People.


It saddens one's heart to see a situation when some group led by one Isaiah Osifo claiming to be the state faction of Lamidi Apapa in Edo State is accusing the State Leadership of the party just to paint the party in a bad light before the people.


These self centred  Politicians  with no shame have now settled to distract the leadership of the party with their alleged claims as a means to destabilize the party’s goal of winning some local government council areas in the upcoming local government election in Edo State.


With the table turned within the political arena and the people willing to vote Candidates of Labour Party in the forthcoming Local Government election due to the desperation of the People's Democratic Party and the All Progressive Congress in the last general elections.


In view of this, instead of allowing the party to focus and strategize on available measures to win the election, the alleged faction have allegedly   collected huge sums of cash, planning to outrun the present State Executive in their secretariat.


Comrade Kelly Ogbaloi and his team remain the authentic Leadership that Edo People know and should not give  in to the seeming intimidations and threats of those who do not have the best interest of the people at heart but are only interested in starching their bank accounts by playing the spoiler's role.


Loosing focus at this time will be undoing Edo People , the leadership of Labour Party must ensure that they field Candidates with proven character and leadership track record to bring good governance to their local Government and the State in General because the greedy politicians who do not have the interest of the people at heart are already stationed in the supposedly big parties to fly the party flags in the upcoming Local Government election.


On their part, Edo People must not key into the lies of these traducers who are bent on destroying the name of Labour Party for their selfish benefits in place of the general wellbeing of the people.


Comrade Kelly Ogbaloi and his team are Men of proven integrity who are ready to contribute more to the growth and  glory of the party and ensure its integrity is sustained  beyond their administration.
