The Federal High Court in Abuja, on Tuesday, October 8, affirmed Julius Abure’s position as the national chairman of the Labour Party (LP).
The court, in a judgment 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.
The court also validated the March 2024 Nnewi national convention of the party that produced the Abure-led executive.
Justice Nwite said: “I am of the view that, based on these cogent verifiable documents, the defendants’ attempt to impeach the validity of the leadership of the plaintiff fails.“
The plaintiff has proved his case, and I hereby make an order compelling the defendant to accord the plaintiff’s political party, under the leadership of Barrister Julius Abure, all the rights and privileges accorded to a political party duly registered in Nigeria.”
