Funke Awolowo Resigns From Labour Party’s Executive Committee (13326 Views)

A granddaughter of the late Obafemi Awolowo, Funke Awolowo, has resigned her hip of the Labour Party Executive Committee in Lagos State.

Awolowo was, until her resignation, the party’s Head of the Mobilisation and Integration Team in Lagos.


Her resignation was contained in a statement in which she said recent developments within the party had made it increasingly difficult for her to continue her hip on the committee.

The statement, which she signed and addressed to Dayo Ekong, Lagos State Chairman of the party, said the integrity of the committee was being compromised, adding that the situation had damaged her reputation.

“I am writing to formally resign my position as a member of the Lagos State Executive Committee, effective immediately.

“This decision comes after deep reflection and considerable personal introspection. Recent developments have made it increasingly difficult for me to continue in this role in good conscience.


“I have observed with growing concern that the integrity of the committee is being compromised and, regrettably, is being leveraged for purposes that conflict with the values and principles I hold dear.

“More troubling is the damage this has done to my personal reputation, as my name has been unfairly associated with actions and motives that I neither nor condone,” the statement read.


She said that despite stepping away from her role, her commitment to public service and the political process remains steadfast.

That man will buy ALL the players available in the market...other teams will not even be enough to make up a team


These ones pursue power for its sake and will stop at nothing to get what they want.

Its all games to them.

I'm still repeating it, the kind of beating the fraud from Agulu will receive in 2027, he will be beaten as if he had offended Amadioha or collected the wife of Sango. That nonsense campaign against muslim-muslim ticket that was used to manipulate the sentiments of the people which generated uproar in Lagos and everywhere in the last election, is dead right now. Ōbi must contest.. must!


After God, na Tinubu 💪 God bless Nigeria

From the look of things as at today, it may not be wise for him to contest. The situation may change tomorrow though

Don't yawn rubbish here. Is Obi or Atiku that doesn't pursue power? Anyway it's a method you adopted to console yourself

If everyone keeps jumping ship to the ruling party, are we still running a democracy or just dres autocracy?
The next election won’t just be interesting, it’ll test whether we still have real political choice in this country.

The problem with Obidients is that you are stuck in primitive mindsets. When some APC bigwigs were decamping from APC in 2023 and ing the opposition, he didn't have the money to buy them then, right?. But una no talk sat Atiku and Obi dey buy them. Na now when people dey leave LP and PDP una dey do chochocho.

Tinubu is building more bridges while Obi is collapsing the few ones at his disposal. Pretty soon after loosing again, he will open his loose mouth shouting he was rigged out.
