Social media users had shared the fake news to mock the party.
However, a reponse shared on Nairaland reads:
"This is in response to the Thread on front page titled "Is Labour Party Sharing Rice? (Pictures)."
The answer is No. Rather it was soap that's in those bags. And it wasn't Labour Party or Peter Obi that's distributing them, it's individual support groups putting their resources together to find these outreaches.
