STATEMENT FROM THE LABOUR PARTY

Planned Invasion of Labour Party Offices will be resisted - LP Scribe

It has come to the knowledge of the leadership of the Labour Party that the Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC is mobilizing its , hired thugs and some miscreants in concert with the illegal Nenadi Usman led National Caretaker Committee (NCC), and the National Transition Committee (NTC) to invade the National Secretariat of our party.

According to the source, the invasion which is allegedly funded by the Abia state government and one other prominent leader in the party is expected to commence as from Monday 7th of April 2025.

During the invasion, the NLC will attempt an unlawful break and entry into offices at the national headquarters with the aim of carting away sensitive documents and to also vandalise the properties belonging to the party.

We view this action which is capable of breaching the peace of the Federal Capital Territory as irresponsible and an evidence of desperation on the NLC. The Labour Union which the laws that founded it forbids them from partisan politics has at different occasions in the past mobilized miscreants to desecrate the National Headquarters of the party and vandalised the properties.

It must be noted that the judgement of the Supreme Court delivered on the 5th of April, 2025 is very clear and unambiguous. The judgement simply mandates political parties to always resolve their crisis using internal mechanism, and that the issue of leadership is an internal affairs of the political parties. There is no where in the judgement that gave NLC, National Caretaker Committee or any other body by whatever nomenclature to take over the leadership of the Labour Party.

There is a leadership in place in the Labour Party and Barrister Julius Abure who was validly elected at a convention held in March 2024 still remains the National Chairman of the Labour Party. Any attempt to forcefully usurp the present leadership will be resisted.

We are by this statement calling on the attention of the security agencies including the Police, the DSS amongst others to ensure that any activity that is capable of breaching the peace of the FCT must be nipped in the bud and that the masterminds, no matter how high they might be, are apprehended and made to face the full wrath of the law.

Barrister Julius, your tenure has expired...... Just leave.

Supreme Court in Nenadi Usman & Anor v. Julius Abure & Anor
If the Constitution of political parties has prescribed duration of tenure of office of an officer, such officer should be humble enough to leave at the expiration of the tenure (Mohammed Baba Idris JSC on behalf of John Inyang Okoro, Helen Moronikeji Ogunwumiju, Tijjani Abubakar and Haruna Simon Tsammani JJSC)

Hahahaha

Wike will save you
He's the FCT minister


Let's see if Wike & Tinubu will defy the same Supreme court that he was preaching to Fubara to respect

ALEX OTTI is a disgrace to good governernce

NLC should go ahead and invade them. They are a nuisance to the nation.

agbero chairman nairaland branch Tinubu says hi

According to the source, the invasion which is allegedly funded by the Abia state government and one other prominent leader in the party is expected to commence as from Monday 7th of April 2025.

Just mention Peter Obi, nothing will bite you.

No longer Lamidi Apapa, losers keep making excuses for their failures.

When ahmadu Bello told us about this people in d past many of us never believed it but now we see it clearly..

Ahmadu Bello said n I quote *allow an Igbo man into a section of a camp n with time he will start claiming ownership of d camp*

The Igbos were allowed into labor party when they were stranded n today everyone is the enemy n they are trying to take over the party.

At first lamidi apapa was the enemy they made us believe, now it's abure, before u know it an Igbo man will become the labor party chairman.

This further solidify the claim that when u help an Igbo man in distress when he settles down he's coming for your head

Reason nobody will pally with them to get presidency

Alex Otti wants to hijack LP leadership but Aburr no wan gree. It is well!

Sense is far from you, as you are very much ahead.

I do not know why the court, supreme court cannot declare a particular person as the authentic national chairman of labour party than saying it's an internal party affairs that courts do not have jurisdiction on this type of matter...all this will still bring issues and problems in the party..as an internal party affairs the party cannot settle the matter by itself that is why they took the matter and case to the court, supreme court for final settlement.. Nigeria courts ,judges are part of the problems of Nigeria

Obi form your own party these Labour people are not serious people.

Obi lacks the mental capacity to do that. He's a scavenger, not a builder.

The governor is the leader of his party in the state and he is following the court order.

It has been a long list of judgements by the Supreme Court that political parties are voluntary organisations and the Courts cannot determine who should be a leader or member of that political Party.

It is the NEC of the Party that can determine such. The NEC is the highest authority of any Political Party in Nigeria after the National Convention. Decisions reached at NEC are binding and final and can only be repealed by another NEC meeting or the National Convention.

In this case, the fact remains that Abure's tenure expired in June 2024. INEC reminded him and he refused to leave, a NEC meeting was called and also attended by INEC where the NWC was dissolved. He went to Court and the rest is history. So he is clutching at straws, he will leave.
