Okeke said, “We are not unaware that success comes with a lot of challenges and Peter Obi’s monumental domination of Nigeria’s political space will experience same but we least expect it to come from within.
“Our party, the labour party has its robust and organised internal conflict resolution mechanism and it is therefore expected that any disagreement or aggrieved member should activate the mechanism to amicably resolve their challenges.”
He added “We, the South East caucus of Labour Party are having our eyes on the big project, how to get Nigeria working again.
“Bringing sanity to the hopeless situation Nigeria has found herself, helping the Nigerian youths in taking back Nigeria, managing and improving the economy of our dear country for the now and the future generations to come.”
