The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Tuesday, affirmed Mr. Julius Abure as the National Chairman of the Labour Party, LP.
The court, in a judgement that was delivered by Justice Emeka Nwite, directed the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to accord the LP under Abure’s leadership, all the rights and privileges accorded a political party duly registered in Nigeria.
He told the court that on April 18, 2023, at the NEC meeting of the party held in Asaba, Delta State and duly monitored by INEC, it was resolved that the tenures of State Chairmen whose tenures had expired, be renewed. According to the plaintiff, on June 28, 2024, INEC, issued to him and 18 other National Chairmen of political parties, a Notice for Inspection of Sensitive Election Materials for the Ondo and Edo state governorship polls.
Therefore, he prayed the court to intervene by compelling INEC to accord him recognition as the National Chairman of the LP.“I am of the view that and so hold that the basis of these cogent verifiable documents, the defendant’s attempt to impeach the validity of the leadership of the plaintiff fails.
