The Ogun State chapter of Labour Party (LP) on Friday suspended the acting National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr. Abayomi Arabambi, the State Chairman and Secretary of the party, Mr Michael Ashade, and Mr Michael Feyisola, respectively for gross-misconduct and anti-party activities.

Addressing newsmen in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, Chief Lookman Jagun, the Deputy State Chairman and Ogun East Senatorial Leader of the party, said the decision was reached at the end of an emergency leadership and stakeholders’ meeting held in Abeokuta.

Jagun who was supported by Chief Ope Ijaola, Deputy Chairman and Ogun Central Senatorial Leader, Alhaji Taofeek Oloyede, Acting Ogun West Senatorial Leader, Olori Bukola Soyeye, Women Leader and Gbadebo Fesomade, State Treasurer, re-affirmed the membership of Director-General of Peter Obi- Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Dr. Doyin Okupe.

Jagun noted that the leaders of the party, recommended that the National leadership of the party should set up disciplinary panel to probe the activities of the suspended members, and as well replace Arabambi as the Acting National Publicity Secretary.

The statement read, “We, leaders and stakeholders of Labour Party in Ogun State have suspended the membership of Mr. Michael Ashade, State Chairman, Mr Michael Feyisola, State Secretary, Mr Abayomi Olufemi Arabambi, Acting National Publicity Secretary from the Labour Party for gross misconduct and anti party activities”.

He added, that “the party decided to axe these officers for various offences bothering on connivance with other parties, especially the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC government in the State to thwart the aspirations of Labour Party candidates in Ogun State as well as their various gross public misconducts and anti party activities”.

He recalled that “the National Secretariat of the Party, under the leadership of Comrade (Barr) Julius Abure through the National Secretary, Mallam Farouk Ibrahim on Tuesday handed a major query and caution to the Acting National Publicity Secretary, Mr Arabambi Abayomi for his public misconduct and incitement of a faction of the State Executives led by Michael Ashade and Michael Feyisola against the National leadership of Labour Party and its Presidential Campaign Council (PCC)”

He added that Ashade, the ‘former’ State Chairman was on Monday recalled from the State Exco alongside other Executive Members, who hailed from the Ogun West Senatorial District by leaders and stakeholders of the party from the Senatorial district for incompetence, thuggery and public misconduct capable of bringing the popularity of the party into disrepute in the handling of the legal matters of Labour Party candidates in the State over the listing of Ogun State Candidates for 2023 elections by INEC”.

“We consider their recent vituperation and interventions as scenes from their theatre of the absurd and their last dance of the macabre by making such insensitive, uncouth and laughable announcements on severely faulted and faultable premises”.

“We dissociate ourselves and condemn its utterances and import in its entirety and declare it undemocratic, unreasonable, capable of threatening the peace and the democratic space of the country and of no substance and effect whatsoever”.

“We hereby reaffirm and pass a vote of confidence on the Director General of the Obi Datti Campaign Organisation Dr. Doyin Okupe as well as the 11 notable members of the Party that are purportedly expunged which include Hon. Abayomi Collins, Hon. Abel Olaleye, Chief Jagun Lookman, Olori Oluwabukola Soyoye, Mr. Gbadebo Fesomade, (State Treasurer) and Mr. Abdulmalik Olaleye (State Youth Leader). Others are Mr. Jide Amusan (State Publicity Secretary) Mr. Adeshina Wasiu Shojobi (Asst State Youth Leader), Miss Deborah Adewale, (Senatorial Women Leader Ogun East)and Mr. Olatunde Abolade (Asst State Secretary)”.

“The Party, therefore, has directed both Ashade and Feyisola, Former State Chairman and Secretary respectively and their cohorts to immediately hand over all party valuables and documents in their possession and make themselves available to a disciplinary panel that is recommended to be set by the National Party Leadership on the National and International embarrassment being caused to the party”.

“We also strongly recommend to the National Party leadership, the immediate replacement of Mr Arabambi Abayomi as the Acting National Publicity Secretary to save the party of further embarrassment and crisis”.

“The party leadership in the State requests the National Leadership of the Labour Party to immediately direct Arabambi to hand over and hand off all matters in court on the listing of Labour Party candidates names for the 2023 elections to prevent electoral failure of the party in Ogun State as there are strong evidences that he and others in the State Exco are working in cahoot with the ruling APC government in Ogun State to frustrate and thwart the effort of the leadership of the Labour Party to have INEC list formidable candidates in Ogun State”.

Making clarification on those who paid membership dues, the State Treasurer of the party, Mr. Fesomade, said the trio of Arabambi, Ashade and Feyisola did not also pay membership dues since the beginning of the year, saying that it was Okupe that was funding the party in the State. Reacting to his purported suspension and two others, the Acting National Publicity Secretary of LP, Arabambi declared their action as null and void, saying that the State executives lack power to suspend national officer of the party. Their action cannot stand. Members of the state executives cannot suspend any national officer. Even, I would not deceive you. They are not members of our party. They had been suspended. Therefore, their action is null and void

I saw it coming. We all know Abayomi and his co-travelers were already bought over by thiefnubuu. They have collected to betray Peter Obi like Judas did but we are way ahead of them.
Sane minds are heading the helm of affairs of Nigeria in the persons of Obi and Datti come next year.

Peter Obi is the next president of Nigeria come 2023

This same Arabambi that is fermenting trouble in Ogun Labour Party has been exposed to be a member of Tinubu's support group SWAGA. He has been trying to help them destroy Labour Party from within. He was unlucky to have unknowingly exposed himself, now the game is up!

Unnecessary distraction.

ObiDatti head get oil

Mr. Abayomi Arabambi is a member of SWAGA and amongst those who met with Abiodun in Abeokuta to support BAT.

LP is just a project owned by Jagaban headed by Doyin Okupe

You think it's a mistake the hit started from Ogun State?!

It's very obvious why out the 36 states in Nigeria plus the fct it has to be labour party of Ogun state...

You posted a photoshopped picture of Peter Obi wearing Tinubu's cap and then Doyin Okupe bowing down to OBJ (in 2016) as if it's wrong to bow to an elder. Aren't you supposed to be a Yoruba man? Since when has it become a crime to prostrate before an elder? You're probably a fooolani mole posing as a Yoruba man because no true Omoluabi will see anything wrong in prostrating. It's weird to you because you're not Yoruba!



By the way, Thiefnubuu is Rebooting...

They should sack those double agents working for Tinubu.

Nice one, the mole showed his hands too early.

I can't imagine this presidential race without tinubu. Just imagine. Who would have been my laughing stock??

Thank you for chasing that jellof rice lunger throat like ffk away from labour.
Worst still his value has been degraded, everyone now knows abayomi is a triballist,wicked,a man without principles and a cheap man.
Obi has won all polls by people, remaining the February to formalise everything.

Nothing is stopping the election of Peter Obi, not even the enemies within under the payroll of Tinubu
