The Labour Party (LP) has clarified that it has not adopted any candidate or aspirant ahead of the 2027 general elections in Nigeria. In an interview, the party's National Vice Chairman, Ceekay Igara, stated that the party currently has no official candidate or aspirant at this stage.Igara emphasized that only the National Executive Council (NEC) of the Labour Party possesses the authority to adopt or endorse any candidate. He warned that any individual claiming the party has already adopted a candidate, including reports suggesting an endorsement of President Bola Tinubu for a second term, is speaking in their personal capacity and not on behalf of the party. The statement comes amid speculation about political alignments and possible cross-party endorsements as Nigeria approaches the next electoral cycle. The Labour Party stressed that no such decision has been made, and any future adoption process will follow due party procedures through the NEC.

NIGERIA COMMITTED TO BECOME GLOBAL COCOA PROCESSOR, SAYS FG. (PHOTO)

 Nigeria committed to become global cocoa processor, says FG


Vice President Kashim Shettima has affirmed Nigeria’s commitment to reviving its cocoa industry and the broader agricultural value chain to become a major global processor rather than just a producer of cocoa. He stated this during a meeting with the President of the World Cocoa Foundation (WCF), Chris Vincent, in Abuja.


Shettima mentioned the recent approval for the establishment of a National Cocoa Management Board as evidence of the government’s dedication. The WCF aims to partner with Nigeria to revitalise Nigeria’s cocoa sector in line with the European Union’s sustainability regulations. He also emphasised Nigeria’s available manpower and the eagerness of its young population to participate in the agricultural sector.


“We don’t want to be producers of cocoa; we want to be processors of cocoa because a tonne of cocoa will fetch you $9,000 now, but processed cocoa will get you $30,000. If you turn them into chocolate bars, that might fetch you $50,000. “So, we have the manpower, the average age of the nation is 17. We have very virile young men who are willing to work if they have the opportunity. So, I’m speaking from the heart,” he maintained.


The Vice President pledged Nigeria’s readiness to work with the World Cocoa Foundation. He said he would personally engage Governor Agbu Kefas of Taraba State to secure the 10,000 hectares in the Kurmi Local Government Area of the state for the WCF and other partners to expand their investments in the nation’s cocoa industry. Underscoring the Nigerian leadership’s commitment to be actively involved in the process, he said, “I want to walk the talk. It is not even about the profit criteria; no. It’s about the social welfare criteria — employing people.


“Look, let me take you to my farm and you’ll be convinced that the new Nigerian leadership is actively involved and is itching to drive the process.”
