Ondo State Governor Olusegun Mimiko yesterday denied report linking him to a move to join the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Mimiko said he remained in the Labour Party (LP).

The governor, who spoke at the LP National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting in Abuja, described the report as a rumour.

 “All the reports you hear or read are mere rumours and I cannot react to rumours. As you can see, I am here today to attend the LP NEC meeting. I will also be in Akure on October 4 when we will host the party’s third national convention,” Mimiko said.

The party’s National Chairman, Dan Nwanyanwu, said he would step down as the party’s chairman.

Nwanyanwu said he will not present himself for re-election at the party’s next convention which is slated for Akure on October 4.

 He said having played his part; it would not make any sense for him to remain as the chairman.

Reading the communiqué at the end of the meeting, Nwanyanwu thanked the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) for working with the party leadership to promote and consolidate its ideas.
