“I’m back As LP National Chairman, Restraining Order Set Aside” – Abure
On Thursday at a press conference held at the party’s headquarters in Abuja, Labour Party National Chairman Julius Abure announced his return to the party’s helm.
Abure, while assuring party members and the public of the party’s unity, stated emphatically that the Labour Party lacked any factions.
In addition, Abure revealed the unsuccessful efforts of the suspended Deputy National Chairman, Apapa Lamidi, to form a faction within the party.
The Labour Party remained steadfastly united under his leadership, thwarting Lamidi’s attempts, Abure stated.
Abure also disclosed that the FCT High Court in Abuja had lost jurisdiction over a case seeking a restraining order against him.
in a related development, the Labour Party (LP) has made a new revelation regarding the party’s ongoing leadership crises.
According to LP, the party faction led by acting national chairman Lamidi Apapa is attempting to overturn Peter Obi’s victories.
Specifically, the party asserted that the Apapa faction has petitioned a Kano state court to invalidate the party’s recent electoral victories.

Obiora Ifoh, the party’s acting National publicity secretary, disclosed this in a statement.
The assertion reads:
The Labour Party has been made aware of an illegal attempt by a faction of the party led by Lamidi Apapa to mislead the Kano state High court into invalidating all the elections won by the Labour Party in the recently concluded general election.
Samuel Akingbade Oyelekan, the suspended National Legal Adviser and a key member of the disgraced Apapa group, snuck out of Abuja to Kano state on Wednesday, while the Presidential Appeal Tribunal was sitting in Abuja with all eyes on it, and asked the court to invalidate all the elections won by the Labour Party, particularly the national assembly in the 36 states and FCT on March 28.
