Prince Tom Iseghohi, a governorship aspirant of the Labour Party(LP) in the Edo State 2024 Governorship race, has withdrawn from the race.
In a letter he forwarded to the National and State Chairmen of the party, Barrister Julius Abure and Comrade Kelly Ogbaloi, respectively, Iseghohi, said: “I have observed with keen interest the process that is being utilized to nominate the gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party.
“As a participant in the process, I am disappointed by the lack of transparency and the monetization of the process at the expense of selection of the best candidate with the popularity within the party and the capacity to win the general elections.
“This is at variance with my personal value system, that of my political family and the interest of the people of Edo State.
“Consequently, after consultations with my mentors, advisers, my team and my family, I hereby withdraw from the nomination process in the Labour Party.
“I am grateful for your attention to this urgent matter and look forward to your prompt and decisive action.”
Yours Sincerely,
Prince Tom Iseghohi, Gubernatorial Aspirant, Labour Party(LP).
