The National Chairman of the  Labour Party, Chief Dan Nwanyanwu,  has said the party supported the emergence of the faction of Governors Forum led by the Plateau State Governor, David Jonah Jang in line with its belIEF  in party supremacy.
Nwanyanwu who spoke shortly after a meeting with one of its governorship  aspirants for the Anambra state gubernatorial  election, Chief Ifeany Ubah at the party's secretariat in Abuja said  the  party believed strongly that  Jang is the righful candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party for the NGF chairmanship post.
"We believe in the supremacy of the party and that is why we believe that there should no compromise on the issue of the Governors Forum Chairmanship. We took our position and we have no apologies to anybody. 
"Right from the time of former Governor Attah to Governor Igbenedion and up to former Governor of Nassarawa state, Abdullahi Adamu to the time of Governor Chibuike Amaechi, there has never been an election in the NGF.
"The party with highest number of governors usually produce their candidate to be  endorsed as chairman and the opposition will bring the vice chairman.  That was what was done in the governors forum”,  he said.
