As the disquiet in Nigeria's third largest political party, Labour Party, rages on, the Apapa led National Working Committee (NWC) of the party, has called on the presidential candidate of the party, Peter Obi, the governor-elect of Abia State, Alex Otti and legislators elected on the platform of the party, to disassociate themselves from the suspended National Chairman of the party, Bar Julius Abure.


This was contained in a press statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Abayomi Arabambi, where the party alleged plot by the Abure led NWC together with none members of the party's NEC, including Peter Obi and others to to push for the suspension of members of the NWC in a meeting scheduled to hold in Asaba tomorrow Tuesday.


But warned that such action would only amount to contempt of court and all parties involved might as well risk jail term, especially when Abure and those to preside at the meeting have been restrained by court and are currently facing criminal charges in court. The restraining order has also been communicated to inec by our lawyer OJ ONOJA SAN.


The statement reads:


"The attention of the National Working Committee of Labour Party has been drawn to a plot by the suspended National Chairman of Labour Party, Julius Abure, to lure Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the party and Alex Otti, the Governor-elect of Abia State under the Labour Party into conducting an emergency National Executive Meeting (NEC) scheduled to hold in Asaba on Tuesday April 18, 2023.


We have also been informed that one of the agenda of the meeting is to carry out illegal suspension on members of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party by the same suspended NWC members led by Abure who are currently facing criminal charges in court.


Last week,Julius Abure and his illegal gang executives went against a restraining Order of an Abuja High Court as a result of indictment by the Inspector General of Police through the DIG Force CID for Forgery,Perjury and impersonation in suit number CV/2930/2023 to conduct a parallel screening for governorship candidates of Labour Party from Imo, Bayelsa and Kogi State when a screening was ongoing at the party's national headquarters.


We have been reliable informed that Abure and his gang have gathered some senators-elect, house of representatives members-elect of Labour Party, who have not been inaugurated and are also not
members of NEC for the meeting to take illegal decision against the party's constitution.


Such action is a contempt of court that even a child should know the impending consequences of a jail term.


While the rumour of the planned Asaba kangaroo meeting has been confirmed to be true, we don't want to believe that our presidential candidate, Peter Obi, Alex Otti, the Governor-elect of Abia State and other elected members of the party are part of this plot.



We believe that they know of the impending consequences of holding a NEC meeting under the Abure leadership when the court has restrained them from the role of the national chairman and national secretary. They risk jail term through contempt proceeding that will be filled against them in the court, should they proceed with the plan as it's a direct affront and insult on the presiding Judge Hon Justice H MUAZU order as granted on the 5th day of April 2023


There is a tenent of the rule of law that should be uphold, especially for people who got their mandates on the trust of a new Nigeria of uprightness. A Nigerian that the rule of law is respected.


We will therefore advise that Obi concentrate on his case at the Election Petition Tribunal and allow the court complete its proceedings on Julius Abure and other members of the party's NWC fingered in forgery and perjury.



He ( Peter Obi) should know that by the provisions of law, he is not an officer of Labour Party. We want him to know that. Otti is not an officer of Labour Party. It's only the National Working Committee that can conduct primary. Obi is not a member of Labour Party NWC. Even if he won the presidential election, that doesn't qualify him to become an NWC member but he can only be a member of NEC.


By the provisions of law, anyone involved in such plot risk contemp of court and jail term.

Labour Party was founded on principle and this is what we must continue to preserve. Obi must not join Abure to ruin the fortune of Labour Party as the new National leadership will not condone any form of executive rascality, malfeasance where Labour party will be reduced to a one man, regional or ethnic base political party as being currently promoted by the infantile Julius Abure and his co travellers

Confused party.

Apapa led nwc? you don't like Oshodi led nwc Aburi remains our chairman

Apapa led nwc? you don't like Oshodi led nwc Aburi remains our chairman

After poking fun at Apapa as a place instead of a person, and comparing to Oshodi, you ended up disgracing your own self by referring to Aburi instead of Abure.

Poetic Justice right back at you.

Aburi is a place in Ghana, go to Ghana then.

LP is headed by Lamidi Apapa, and he has served his warning to the political prostitutes who gatecrashed into the party looking for ticket.

At least Alex Otti brought in the Abia governorship. Peter Obi only brought in 3rd position and shameful London detention.

He ( Peter Obi) should know that by the provisions of law, he is not an officer of Labour Party. We want him to know that. Otti is not an officer of Labour Party. It's only the National Working Committee that can conduct primary. Obi is not a member of Labour Party NWC.

This is the true Labour Party talking.

Unfortunately, ticket hunters like Obi do not even know Party manifesto or constitution, to better guide their own behaviour within the party.

See as Obi just dey chop disgrace both locally and internationally.

Sadly, Peter Obi's desperation and political prostitution already deprived Labour Party of having a legitimate candidate during the presidential election.

Tinubu was 1st, Atiku 2nd, Kwankwaso 3rd. Kachikwu Dumebi of ADC is the actual 4th.

To be fair to Peter Obi, he didn't gatecrash into LP, LP were being opportunitistic in opening their arms to welcome him (and then handing over their presidential ticket at short notice) because anyone could have told them that they would eventually have to hand the party over to him and "his supporters".

I am convinced that Obi will not be in the Labour Party by the next elections anyway.

LP suddenly is in crisis, because they are a formidable force

The implosions has been set rolling. No thanks to Obi the cankerworm. First it was Apga then PDP now it's LP's turn to suffer the Obi's curse.

Have you read the Constitution of the Labour Party?

Do you know what positions that are automatically conferred on elected political office holders like Governors, Senators and other Legislatures in Labour Party according to the Constitution of the party?

Nairaland is like a school, please stop misinforming, disinforming and deceiving Nigerians and other students of history.

Get enough information on a subject matter before making any ridiculous opinion
