Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), has announced that an updated presidential campaign council list will be released in “due course”.
The party came under fire following the release of its 1,234-member campaign council list on Wednesday.
There was an uproar over the alleged inclusion of John Eneche, a retired army general and defence spokesman, who while in service had said pictures from the #EndSARS protests were “photoshopped”.
In a tweet on Friday, Obi pleaded for patience over the reactions that trailed the list, admitting that there were some erroneous entries.

“I’ve received several calls of concern following the release of the Labour Party’s Presidential Campaign Council list,” the former governor of Anambra tweeted.
“Admittedly, there were some omissions and erroneous entries in the list, hence the concerns expressed.
“In response, the Labour Party Chairman in the presence of members of the NWC addressed the issues during a press conference.
“In keeping with our commitment to accountability, responsiveness and transparency, an updated list will be issued in due course. I plead for patience. -PO.”
