NLC Urged To Stop Demarketing Obi, Labour Party

Labour Party Directorate on Mobilisation and Integration has asked the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) Transition Committee to stop demarketing the party and its 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

It insisted that Barrister Julius Abure remains the authentic national chairman of LP, which has been confirmed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the party’s highest decision-making organ. It asked NLC NTC to be responsible enough to respect the reconciliation move initiated by H.E. Peter Obi or seek legal redress if they have any case.

The directorate reacted yesterday to an unsigned statement purportedly released by the NLC National Transition Committee (NTC) where it allegedly described Abure as the party’s former national chairman.

The statement further directed party stakeholders to boycott the planned Congress organised by the Labour Party in Anambra, Imo, Delta and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

But in a statement signed by the director-general of the Labour Party Directorate on Mobilisation and Integration, Mr Marcel Ngogbehei, he described the statement by the NTC as childish, malicious and misleading, noting that NLC does not have the authority to set up any transition committee for any party in Nigeria, adding that that action is alien in law.

The directorate further stated that the NTC has been notorious for its divisive nature and urged Nigerians and Labour Party supporters to ignore their antics and be law-abiding.

Ngogbehei further urged the LP stakeholders not to be distracted by the NTC’s attitude and to ensure they attend the upcoming party congresses, as announced by the Abure-led National Working Committee (NWC).

The LP also accused the NLC NTC of working with the government to demarket, weaken and prevent opposition parties like LP from holding the government accountable.
