INEC had hand in Labour Party crisis – Rep Afam Ogene
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

A member of the House of Representatives, Afam Ogene, has said that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has a hand in destabilising the Labour Party.

Hon Ogebe said this on Friday when he featured in an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television.

He said, “We are Africans. If the witch cries in the night and the baby dies in the morning, who killed the baby? As soon as Peter Obi left the Labour Party, they felt comfortable enough to do the right thing.

“We should blame INEC why it took them that long to return the party to the people who should run the party.

“INEC has a hand in destabilizing the Labour Party because in September 2024, the stakeholders of the party in Umuahia did set up an interim National Executive Council led by Senator Nenadi Usman.

“So why did it take INEC one and half years to recognize Nenadi Usman as chairman of the Labour Party?”
