According to online reports, Valentine Onuigbo, the chairman of the Labour Party has died.
In the early hours of Saturday, February 25, the chairman of the Labor Party (LP) in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) district of Karshi reportedly passed away in his sleep.
His family has only verified that he managed the party’s pre-election activities up until late Friday night and that he was looking forward to the start of voting on Saturday.
The cause of his death is still unclear. To the disappointment of his family and friends, he didn’t wake up to carry out the activities he had excitedly anticipated.
There has been no news from the party or the family about what might have caused his premature death before the election.
Also in the news, Tru News Report has revealed that Governor Samuel Ortom of the state of Benue has reportedly cast his ballot for Peter Obi of the Labour Party in the ongoing presidential election.
Even though he belongs to the same political party as Atiku Abubakar, the PDP nominee he voted for Peter Obi reinforces the notion that all is not well in their camp.
Along with Governors Nyesom Wike of Rivers State, Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Ifeanyi Ugwanyi of Enugu State, and Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, Governor Ortom is one of the G-5 governors who are having issues with Atiku.
His thumbprint was plainly visible on the labour party symbol on the ballot paper he was holding in the photo. It is unknown if he displayed the ballot and his decision on purpose or if the press simply snapped a photo of it.
