Chief Adesunbo Onitiri, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos state, has defected to the Labour Party to contest the forthcoming Lagos Central senatorial election.

“Here I am, imploring the entire Lagosians and residents to actively support and vote massively for the Labour Party so as to salvage our ‘wrecked’ country from total destruction and imminent calamity," the LP new chieftain said.

“Nigeria is too sick to be trusted with old, nepostic, tribalistic and expired politicians to govern," the Labour Party chieftain said," he added.
