LEADERSHIP Exclusively learnt that party leaders at the ward and state levels are miffed that the lawmakers who benefited from the tsunami have refused to fund party activities at the ward and state levels.

It was gathered that party administrators at the grassroots have begun subterranean moves to deny tickets to all their representatives.

But the lawmaker representing Igbo Eze South in the Enugu State House of Assembly, Harrison Ogara, said though the party, like other political parties, is facing challenges, nobody has told him that he will be denied ticket in 2027.

He said it was not proper for anybody to be talking about 2027 when we are still. In 2025, insisting that it was not right for people to be talking as if they are God.

“Labour Party, like other political parties, has challenges but we will come out of it stronger, we are still in 2025 and it is not good for people to be talking as if they are God” he stated.

In what many described as a tsunami in the last general election in 2023, Labour Party won two seats out of the three seats in the Senate and seven out of the eight seats in the house of representatives.
In addition the party also won a majority of the seats in the state House of Assembly but the defection of some of its members made it become a minority.

Sources told our correspondent that the senator representing Enugu East Zone in the national assembly, Senator Kelvin Chukwu, has been battling to get the structure of the party especially in his zone.
It was alleged that he had once confronted the chairman of the party in the state, Barrister Casmir Agbo over control of the party in his zone, a move that was rebuffed by the party chairman on the ground that he has not shown enough commitment to the party since he was elected.

Sources further alleged that all elected members of the party from the National Assembly to the state assembly have refused to finance the activities of the party.

It was further gathered that the party administrators in the state are working to give the party ticket to new aspirants when the party holds its primary election.

The state chairman of the party, Barrister Casmir Agbo declined to comment on the development after much prodding to react.
