Delta State House of Assembly candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 general election in Aniocha South constituency, Harrison Gwamnishu, has resigned from the party.
Gwamnishu said continuing with the Labour Party could compromise his reputation and integrity after he was accused of betraying the party during the 2023 general elections in the state.
He said at no point did he compromise or act against the interests of the party.
The politician stated this via his X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @HarrisonBbi18 on Wednesday, July 24.
Gwamnishu said he and his team dedicated significant time and resources to promoting the party across Aniocha South LGA during his campaign.
The human rights activist said he is prepared to cooperate with any investigations to clear his name.
He thanked the LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi for inspiring him to venture into politics and join the Obidient movement.
