Bashiru Lamidi Apapa has announced that he has taken over the leadership of the Labour Party following the Supreme Court judgement that sacked Julius Abure as the national chairman of the opposition party.

Apapa made this declaration at a press conference on Wednesday.

He cited the recent April 4, 2025, Supreme Court judgement that nullified Abure’s leadership as a reason for his decision.

Apapa announced that the National Working Committee of the party as of 2022 will meet next week, Monday, 14th April 2025.

“Following the dismissal of the cross appeal filed by the ousted former National Chairman Bar Julius Abure, also by the Supreme Court on April 4th, 2025, what this means is that all actions and decisions taken by Julius Abure since April 4th, 2023, are null and void.

“Following the decision of the Supreme Court on setting aside all judgements that recognise the leadership of Julius Abure as National Chairman, I, ALH BASHIRU LAMIDI APAPA, the most senior deputy national, and in consonance with our party constitution, Article 14 2(a)(b), hereby take over the running of the affairs of our great party with effect from today, Wednesday, the 9th day of April 2025, in an acting capacity, and Alh Farouk Umar Ibrahim as National Secretary,” he stated.

“My leadership hereby calls on all members of the Labour Party that the National Working Committee of our party as of 2022 will meet next week, Monday, 14th April 2025, to announce our plans, which will include zoning the position of National Chairman to the North and National Secretary to the South.

”My leadership will also take proactive steps to resuscitate the moribund Board of Trustees and make it functional.

He added, “The National Working Committee members listed below are hereby put on notice about the NWC meeting coming up on Monday next week, where we will immediately set in motion the conduct of Ward Congresses, Local Government Congresses, State Congresses, and National Convention, where every member of our party shall have the right to participate, provided you are a financial member.”

“Deputy National Chairman NLC, Mr. Ladi Iliya; Deputy National Chairman TUC, Dr. Ayo Olorunfemi, National Secretary; Alh. Umar Farouq Ibrahim, National Legal Adviser; Bar. Oyelekan Akingbade, National Publicity Secretary; Dr. Abayomi Arabambi, National Treasurer; and Mrs. Oluchi Opara, National Youth Leader”, he stated.

Why is APC so bent on scattering LP with Abure and apapa?

Because they know they will fail if Peter Obi is on the ballot.
