Abure: Picket All LP Offices – NLC Orders State Chairmen

 

The Nigeria Labour Party, NLC has given an order to all its state chairmen.

 

NLC directed them to picket secretariats of the Labour Party, LP, across the country.

 

The directive was given at a meeting held by the Chairmen of all NLC state Councils/Political Commission yesterday.

 

Their directive followed what they termed the financial rascality and decision of the LP’s National Chairman, Julius Abure, to hold the party’s national convention.

 

In a statement signed by Titus Amba, Chairperson of NLC Political Commission, and Chris Uyot, Secretary of the NLC Political Commission, the body urged civil societies, traders, students, and professionals “to ensure that the picketing and mobilization are successfully executed.”

 

The statement reads: “We bring you fraternal greetings from the Nigeria Labour Congress. Sequel to a meeting of the NLC National Political Commission and the leadership of the NLC state Councils and Political Committees which took place virtually on the 19th of March 2024, it was resolved as follows:

This follows NLC’s claimed ownership of the Labour Party, while stressing that Abure violated a court order on the ownership of the party.

 

The NLC Political Commission had described Abure as a “drowning wannabe politricstar.”
