Labour Party (Nigeria)

[4][5] In 2007, Olusegun Mimiko, ran successfully as governor of Ondo State under the banner of the Labour Party for a period of two terms (2009–2017), only to return to the PDP in 2020.[6] After the late National Chairman Alhaji Abdulkadir Abdulsalam died in 2020,[7] the party went through a serious leadership crisis.[9] Former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, joined the party after leaving the Peoples Democratic Party a proactive decision prompted by his inability to gain the necessary support needed to win in the fast approaching PDP primaries.[12] This was the first time the trade union federations expressed explicit support for a political party.The linkage, between the wheel and man, woman and child connotes that governance, economic and social development must lead to the advancement of human beings.
