The Supreme Court judgment did not say the tenure of the current National Working Committee (NWC) under my leadership has expired,” Abure stated, refuting claims made by rival factions within the party.He further described the so-called National Caretaker Committee as “an illegal body unknown to any law guiding the Labour Party.”Abure continued, “What happened in Umuahia, Abia State, was not a NEC meeting; as such, the so-called caretaker committee is an illegal entity.

The purported caretaker committee is just a meddlesome interloper whose sole purpose is to destroy our party.”The post Thugs Attack Lagos Labour Party Secretariat, Cart Away Millions Of Naira, Other Valuables appeared first on Naija News..
