George Muoghalu and John Nwosu have been approved by the Labour Party (LP) to participate in the party primaries on April 5 in advance of the November election for governor of Anambra state.
The two candidates were reportedly vetted on Friday by the Screening Committee, which was chaired by George Ozodinobi, the House of Representatives’ Deputy Minority Whip.
In his remarks, Ozodinobi praised the two candidates for their track records and devotion to the party’s leadership, as well as for being genuine party members.

He reassured them of the party’s dedication to selecting the most qualified candidate and its nonpartisan approach to the selection process.
“We want to reassure you of the utmost transparency throughout the selection process, and we will adhere to the established guidelines.”
“We’ll want to make sure that we go into the election as a cohesive house, free of animosity. “Everyone in the party will join our flag-bearer in the difficult task of campaigning and winning the November governorship election for the salvation of Anambra State,” he said, adding that it would be a fraternal setting.
Muoghalu was a former National Auditor of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the first National Secretary of the All Nigeria People’s Party (ANPP).
The Peter Obi and Datti Ahmed Presidential Campaign Council in 2023 also has Nwosu as a director.
