Consequently, the NLC has directed its political committee members in each state to intensify their efforts in mobilizing workers and Nigerian citizens at the local, ward, and polling unit levels to vote for Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, as well as all Labour Party candidates participating in the elections.
The NLC has also mandated political committees to collaborate with their partners in civil society organizations and student groups to ensure that the electoral process is transparent, free, and fair and to take all necessary steps to safeguard the people’s votes.
To accomplish these objectives, the NLC has requested that all affiliate unions and State Councils of Congress provide maximum support and cooperation to the political committees.
They must strengthen their efforts at the state, local government, ward, and polling unit levels by supplying at least ten ward coordinators and canvassers to mobilize voters and defend the people’s votes.
