SUPREME COURT JUDGMENT FALLOUT: Labour Party Chairman, Julius Abure Sacks Aides

 


National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure, has approved the termination of appointment of some of the presidential campaign assistants of Peter Obi after the Thursday’s Supreme Court verdict went against his party.

In a termination letter signed by the National Secretary of the party, Malam Umar Farouk, Abure said all appointments related to elections and campaigns had been formally dissolved.

The effected appointees include: Mr. Mandela Ukegbu, Chairman, Labour Party Presidential Campaign Committee on Special Duties; Engineer Balami Isaac David, Senior Special Assistant on Presidential Campaign, Fund Raising and Grassroot Mobilization; Didacus Joe-Adigwe, Senior Special Adviser on Strategy, Protocol and International Relations; Princess Ajibola, Senior Special Assistant on Special Duties and Mobilization and Isaac Imasuagbon, Senior Special Assistant on ICT,” Farouk said.

He wished them well in their future engagements.

The party had rejected the declaration of President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as winner of the February election and headed for the court.

However, the opposition party suffered double loss as the Supreme Court upheld the victory of Tinubu on Thursday.

At the court sitting, the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, and his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Peter Obi were not present.

But Abure alongside the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje; National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu; Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila; Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike; were in the court when the verdict was read.
