Our alleged suspension by Abure-led Labour Party is laughable, says LP Reps
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Three Labour Party members of the House of Representatives have dismissed their purported suspension, describing it as “laughable”.

They said this in a statement by Àfam Ogene, leader of the Labour caucus, Seyi Sowunmi, deputy leader and Amobi Ogah, member, on Friday.

Julius Abure, factional Labour Party chairman, announced the suspension of the trio.

The faction also announced the suspension of the only governor elected on the party platform, Alex Otti, Ireti Kingibe and Darlington Nwokocha, secretary of the party’s National Caretaker Committee.

The three lawmakers expressed dismay that Mr Abure, instead of working to improve the fortunes of the party, seemed focused on orchestrating its disintegration to appease external forces driving his actions.

The politicians said, “From yesterday’s overreach of himself and his band of jesters, it is now evidently clear to everyone who has followed recent events in the Labour Party. A political party is set up for the specific goal of participating in the democratic process, especially the contestation for power.

“Since the Peter Obi effect of 2023, what has Abure and his gang of undertakers done to enhance the fortunes of the party? In fact, we challenge him and his cohorts to name one single individual of note that they have attracted to the party since 2023.

“From Kogi to Bayelsa, Ondo to Edo, what Abure has done is lead the party to disastrous outcomes. The last time around, it was announcing the sack and replacement of Hon. Ogene as caucus leader, but when that didn’t work, he has resorted to contriving a fake suspension order.”

They added, “Abure has appointed himself as a willing undertaker for the destruction of the soul of the party but ironically, he is only supervising the burial plan of his image and integrity as a public servant and political leader.

”We wish him well.”
