The Labour Party has branded Osheokwu Onochie, a former aide to Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State as a hero of the struggle for a new Nigeria.
TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that Governor Okowa is the vice presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for the 2023 elections.
Onochie recently resigned as Okowa’s Senior Special Assistant on Youth Development and switched allegiance to support the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi.
Onochie tendered his resignation letter to the Delta State Governor on Thursday through the Secretary to the State Government.
