The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja and presided over by Justice Peter Lifu has affirmed the removal of Julius Abure as the national chairman of the Labour Party, LP.
Delivering judgment this Wednesday, Justice Lifu upheld the Nenadi Usman-led committee as the only valid and lawful leadership of the Labour Party.
The Court therefore ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to recognize the Senator Nenadi Usman-led National Caretaker Committee as the party’s lawful leadership, reaffirming that Abure’s tenure had elapsed in line with an earlier Supreme Court judgment.
According to a human Rights Activist Inibehe Effiong via his X, “I am currently before the Federal High Court in Abuja for a case.
“Honourable Justice Lifu has just upheld Senator Nnadi Esther Usman-led National Caretaker Committee as the only valid and lawful leadership of the Labour Party.
“The Judge reaffirmed that by the Supreme Court’s judgement, Julius Abure’s tenure had since elapsed.
“The judge ordered INEC to recognize Nnadi Usman forthwith.”
