‘Explain Why You’re Still In Charge’ – Gov. Otti Fires Abure Over Labour Party Crisis.
Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has criticised the former National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure, over the continued issuance and sale of governorship nomination forms to aspirants despite reported objections from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) regarding his leadership status.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
News reports that Otti’s reaction followed a viral photograph showing Abure presenting a Labour Party nomination form to a former National Vice Chairman of the party, Ceekay Igara, alongside other party officials.
Confirming receipt of the form, Igara told journalists that the action was part of preparations ahead of ongoing legal disputes surrounding the party’s leadership.
He explained that stakeholders were acting with caution to avoid a political vacuum should the court eventually deliver a final ruling on the matter.
Igara said, “We have two matters, one at the Supreme Court and the other at the Federal High Court. If we say Abure should be docile, all the 33 states that conducted congresses will just go into extinction. If the Supreme Court later gives him the structure and primaries have closed, what happens?”
However, Governor Otti, through his Chief Press Secretary, Ukoha Ukoha, faulted Abure’s actions, questioning his continued claim to the party’s leadership despite existing court rulings.
Otti argued that a Federal High Court and the Court of Appeal had already recognised Senator Nenadi Usman as the interim leader of the Labour Party prior to the party’s convention.
He insisted that Abure’s actions amount to disregard for judicial decisions, stressing that the party had moved beyond his leadership and that INEC had aligned with the court-recognised structure.
Otti’s aide further stated that INEC could not legitimately supervise any electoral process conducted under Abure’s authority.
He said Abure should explain to Nigerians why he continues to issue nomination forms despite subsisting court judgments, describing the action as a violation of court orders.
