The statement read, “My attention has been drawn to fallacious and very disturbing news with the caption ‘Isaac Balami as Okupe’s replacement’ making the rounds, especially on social media.
“I wish to hereby address the report with the above heading as completely false and baseless: it is a deliberate falsehood against my person and office in the present political dispensation. Calculated to serve the selfish and dastardly intentions of certain remote persons aiming to distract and derail the cohesion so far responsible for the unending successes of the Labour Party’s campaigns across Nigeria.
“This allegation, a false representation of my personality is not only spurious but malicious. It is a futile effort to pitch me and my office against my superiors and my fellow hardworking campaign council members, whom I have always had the utmost regard and love for.
“The news is a piece from mischief makers who think they can derail our great Labour Party and also diminish the influence of the next President of Nigeria, His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi by attacking the unity of purpose of his campaign team working hard to make Nigeria great again.
