BREAKING: Former NBA ‘President’ Joins Labour Party (PHOTO)

Former President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Olumide Akpata, has announced that he has joined the Labour Party (LP).

Akpata shared this information in a tweet on Tuesday, revealing that he became a member of the LP in March and recently attended his first ward meeting on Saturday.

”Quite a number of people have called/messaged me to confirm the news, currently making the rounds, that I have joined a political party.

”Yes. I joined the@labourparty_ng in March this year and on Sunday I attended my first Ward Meeting at Oredo Ward 6, in Benin-City, where I was formally introduced to members of the Ward and presented with my Party membership card.

”This was a major step for me and not one that I took lightly…but I simply got tired of complaining about Nigeria every day and bemoaning her fate and I decided to take the plunge and to try to be part of the solution rather than agonising continually over the problem.

”This, for me, is the start of a very important journey, and it is my prayer that I arrive safely at my destination.#Nigeria #Edo #LP #ForwardEver #ChangeIsIndeedPOssible #BeTheChangeYouWantToSee.”
