The 2023 Labour Party House of Assembly Candidate in Aniocha South Constituency, Delta State, Harrison Gwamnishu has formally resigned from the Labour Party, with immediate effect.
Gwamnishu disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday.

“These allegations, propagated by the Aniocha South Local Government Labour Party Executive, have made it evident that continuing my affiliation with the party could compromise my reputation and integrity.
“Throughout my campaign, my team and I dedicated significant time and resources to promoting the party across Aniocha South LGA.
“At no point did I compromise or act against the interests of the party.
“I categorically deny the accusations against me and am fully prepared to cooperate with any investigations to clear my name.
“However, I acknowledge that for the party to maintain its credibility and public trust, it is crucial to distance itself from any allegations of impropriety.”
According to the statement, his commitment to the party and its values has always been unwavering.
Adding: “Nevertheless, given the current circumstances, I believe my resignation serves the best interests of both the party and myself.”
He hoped that his resignation will enable the party to focus on its objectives without distraction.
Continuing, he thanked Mr. Peter Obi for inspiring him to enter politics and join the Obidient movement, just as he also extended his appreciation to Chief Anthony Ezeagu, the then Delta State Labour Party Chairman, and the Executive for their support and opportunities.
“I will always value the experiences and achievements we shared and wish the party continued success in its future endeavors,” his statement concluded.
