ABURE HAPPY OVER COURT VICTORY, WANTS OBI TO HELP UNITE PARTY

Labour Party Chairman, Julius Abure, has issued a statement following the Federal High Court’s ruling affirming his leadership.

Abure expressed gratitude and forgiveness, calling the victory “a triumph for justice and democracy.”

“This victory is not just mine, but a victory for justice and democracy,” he said.

According to Abure, he will forgive those who attempted to undermine the party and engaged in character assassination.

He extended appreciation to the judiciary, particularly Justice Emeka Nwite, for upholding justice.

Abure urged Peter Obi, the party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election, to help unite the party.

The Labour Party chairman emphasized the party’s commitment to fighting for the common man and Nigeria’s betterment. “With collective efforts, we will continue to work for a Labour Party that truly represents the hopes and aspirations of every Nigerian,” he said.

The Federal High Court in Abuja on Tuesday declared Abure as the substantive Chairman of the Labour Party.

The judgement was pronounced by Justice Emeka Nwite on Tuesday, affirming the Abure-led leadership and the March 2024 Nnewi convention that produced the national leadership.

The court ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognize Abure as the legitimate chairman, overriding INEC’s earlier stance that Abure’s leadership was invalid.

    PRO-WIKE LAWMAKERS DECLARE PRO-FUBARA LAWMAKERS’ SEATS VACANT The Martin Amaewhule-led Rivers State House of Assembly has declared the seats of Edison Ehie, the Chief of Staff to Governor Siminalayi Fubara, and three other pro-Fubara lawmakers vacant in the wake of their absence from sittings for 152 days. While aaking the declaration on Tuesday during plenary, Amaewhule explained that Ehie did not properly write to inform the House of his new office, and as such his seat has been declared vacant. Regarding Victor Oko-Jumbo and the two others, the House held three separate votes to declare their seats vacant for absenteeism from sitting for 152 days consecutively without notification or permission, in violation of the 1999 Constitution. The House further agreed to write to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to conduct elections to replace the now vacant seats within 90 days to provide representation for their people. Also, the Assembly agreed to give Fubara another opportunity to present the 2024 Appropriations Bill following the Appeal Court’s nullification of the N800 billion budget which he had presented to a parallel House led by Edison Ehie.

    DAMAGUM DIVIDES PDP GOVERNORS

    DAMAGUM DIVIDES PDP GOVERNORS The ongoing crisis within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) shows no signs of resolution, as the internal discord has led to a significant split among governors elected on the party’s platform.The turmoil escalated on Friday when the PDP’s national leadership fractured into two factions, with Yayari Mohammed and Umar Damagum leading each side. This division follows the controversial suspension of the party’s National Legal Adviser, Adeyemi Ajibade, and National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, by the Damagum faction during the 593rd meeting of the National Working Committee (NWC). In the wake of the leadership upheaval, Abdullahi and Okechukwu Osuoha were appointed to fill the roles of the suspended officials in acting capacities. However, the situation intensified further when Ologunagba announced the suspension of Damagum and National Secretary Samuel Anyanwu, citing numerous complaints against them. Prior to these disruptive suspensions, the PDP had scheduled a National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting for October 24, intending to elect a substantive national chairman to complete the tenure of Dr. Iyorchia Ayu. Under this arrangement, Damagum was expected to revert to his position as National Vice Chairman (North). According to Punch, the move to remove Damagum has split the PDP governors, with the Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum and Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, leading six other governors pushing for Damagum’s ouster. With Mohammed are Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke; Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki; Bayelsa State Governor, Douye Diri; Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara; Delta State Governor, Sheriff Oborevwori; and Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno. Meanwhile, four other governors, led by Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, are opposed to Damagum’s removal. Others with Makinde are Governors Ahmadu Fintiri of Adamawa State, Caleb Mutfwang of Plateau State, and Agbu Kefas of Taraba State. However, two out of the 13 governors are neutral. They are Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State and Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State.
