The Lagos state chapter of the Labour Party has disassociated itself from the Lamidi Apapa-led faction saying appropriate measures will be taken to safeguard the legitimacy and reputation of the party.
Recall crisis rocking the party over its perennial leadership tussle took a twist last week when the Appeal Court sitting in Abuja struck out the suit filed by one of the party’s aggrieved Imo governorship candidates, Basil Maduka.
The suit was an appeal against the decision of the Federal High Court sitting in Owerri on June 23, 2023.
While the two warring parties disagreed over the ruling by Justice Joseph Oyewole, the Lagos LP under the leadership of Pastor Dayo Ekong said Barr Julius Abure remains the authentic national chairman of the party while describing Apapa-led faction as “political jobbers” attempting to destroy the integrity and unity within the LP family.
This was contained in a statement signed today by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Olubunmi Odesanya.
