Delta Government on Sunday approved venue for the Presidential Campaign of the Labour Party (LP) in Asaba.
The Commissioner for Information, Charles Aniagwu, in a statement in Asaba, indicated that the state government never denied the opposition party venue for its campaign, contrary to insinuations.
According to Aniagwu, Delta government, contrary to online reports, never denied the Labour Party venue for their presidential campaign in the state.
“Labour Party never applied officially for any venue and was denied.
The commissioner narrated: “A representative of the party only spoke to me via telephone call on Sunday morning and made demand to make use of the Arcade in Asaba.
“The state government immediately within three minutes reached out to the Oshimili South Local Government Council and secured a waiver of all formalities and made the Arcade available for the Labour Party to hold its presidential rally”.
Aniagwu added that to demonstrate Delta Government’s democratic credentials and tolerance for opposition, it graciously waived the amount payable for the venue.
He urged the party to carry on its rally peacefully in line with laid down rules and regulations.
