A lot of people have experienced concern and some have carried rumours as in Anambra state that due to the exit of His Excellency, Olusegun Mimiko from our party to PDP, that the entire party has joined PDP,\u00a0 that is the biggest lie from the pit of hell.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">&#8220;I am appealing to my members and telling them that they should ignore such false, hate speech from the people who are not comfortable with the strides we are making. They think, particularly in Anambra State that they will get some milage in the Saturday November 6 election. For those in Anambra State,\u00a0 we ZLP still have our candidate intact. Go and vote, don&#8217;t listen to rumours, there is no iota of truth in the information.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">While reacting to the decamping of the former Governor of Ondo State, Mimiko to a rival party,\u00a0 Chief Nwanyanwu said, &#8220;Governor Mimiko has the right to join any party of his choice, under the kind politics witnessed in Nigeria today, he is free to exit.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">ZLP Chairman however said the party is repositioning for the 2023 general election and that actions will commence immediately after the Anambra Governorship election.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\">He said a lot of people are joining the party and that its membership has grown astronomically in the last one year. &#8220;So we are intact, a lot of people are joining the party, talking to us to be part of what we are doing. So how can we, when a lot of people are coming into our party and we are talking of merging. ZLP is still here and we have started preparing for 2023.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<div dir=\"auto\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mail-message-footer spacer collapsible\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The national chairman of the Zenith Labour Party,\u00a0 ZLP, Chief Dan Nwanyanwu has said its candidate, Dr. Obiora Okonkwo has the capacity to win the November 6, governorship election in&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":87903,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-87902","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Anambra Gov&#039;ship: ZLP\u00a0not in merger with any party - Nwanyanwu\u00a0 - Pointblank News<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/news\/anambra-govship-zlp-not-in-merger-with-any-party-nwanyanwu\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Anambra Gov&#039;ship: ZLP\u00a0not in merger with any party - Nwanyanwu\u00a0 - Pointblank News\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The national chairman of the Zenith Labour Party,\u00a0 ZLP, Chief Dan Nwanyanwu has said its candidate, Dr. Obiora Okonkwo has the capacity to win the November 6, governorship election in&hellip;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/news\/anambra-govship-zlp-not-in-merger-with-any-party-nwanyanwu\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Pointblank News\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-11-01T19:02:08+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/images403.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"300\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"225\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Our Reporter\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Our Reporter\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/news\/anambra-govship-zlp-not-in-merger-with-any-party-nwanyanwu\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/news\/anambra-govship-zlp-not-in-merger-with-any-party-nwanyanwu\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Our Reporter\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/pointblanknews.com\/pbn\/#\/schema\/person\/ba61acbe7e8967bcf3f3ba603d9db23c\"},\"headline\":\"Anambra Gov&#8217;ship: ZLP\u00a0not in merger with any party &#8211;
