Labour Party Crisis: “We Won’t Rest Until Supreme Court’s Final Verdict” – Abure

Embattled factional National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure, says his group will not rest until the Supreme Court put the matter of the crisis rocking the party to rest.

Abure made this known on Tuesday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.

He was speaking on leadership crisis in the Labour Party, noting that they were not bringing down the house that they built and that they would not be working to bring down the image of the party.

He, however, maintained that injustice and impunity cannot continue in the way it is going.

Abure also faulted the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for recognizing the leadership of Nenadi Usman as interim chairman of the party.

“It is when the Supreme Court gives a final verdict on the matter that it will be said to be laid to rest.

“You know that the Labor Party was built and developed under me and got prominence under my leadership.

“I want to say very clearly that the proper thing that would have been done was for INEC to have waited till the final determination of the case by the Supreme Court before recognizing Nenadi Usman Usman as the national chairman of the party,” he added.
