Embattled factional National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure, says his group will not rest until the Supreme Court put the matter of the crisis rocking the party to rest.

Abure made this known on Tuesday during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today.

He was speaking on leadership crisis in the Labour Party, noting that they were not bringing down the house that they built and that they would not be working to bring down the image of the party.

He, however, maintained that injustice and impunity cannot continue in the way it is going.

Abure also faulted the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for recognizing the leadership of Nenadi Usman as interim chairman of the party.

“It is when the Supreme Court gives a final verdict on the matter that it will be said to be laid to rest.

“You know that the Labor Party was built and developed under me and got prominence under my leadership.

“I want to say very clearly that the proper thing that would have been done was for INEC to have waited till the final determination of the case by the Supreme Court before recognizing Nenadi Usman Usman as the national chairman of the party,” he added.

Embattled factional National Chairman of the Labour Party, Julius Abure had accused the interim chairman of the party, Nenadi Usman as an intruder in the party.

Abure said this on Tuesday when he featured in an interview on ‘Politics Today’, a programme on Channels Television.

He was speaking on the Labour Party divisions and 2027 politics.

“I need to make it very clear that I am not an interloper in Labour Party. If there is any intruder in Labour Party, I think it is Senator Nenadi Usman that is the interloper.

“In any event, the final court has not taken a decision on the matters of Labor Party. You recall that after the convention that was held in 2024 in Nnewi, Anambra state, the Federal High Court made a pronouncement that the convention was valid.

“The court also asked INEC recognize Labor Party under my leadership. The matter went to the Court of Appeal, and the Court of Appeal affirmed same.

“And then Nenadi Usman appealed to the Supreme Court, and the Supreme Court said it was an internal affair of the party, and we have been working very closely with INEC after that decision,” he said.

The New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, has alleged that its former presidential candidate, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, is still meddling in the party’s affairs despite his exit.

The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Ogini Olaposi, made the allegation in a statement on Tuesday.

Olaposi said Kwankwaso has continued to wield influence within the party through loyalists allegedly left behind after his departure.

“Kwankwaso is not only trying to hijack political power in NDC Kano, he has continued to drag the NNPP for reasons best known to him.

“Some members of the Kwankwasiyya Movement are the ones he left behind to continue the litigation that Kwankwaso initiated,” the party said.

According to the party, Kwankwaso’s political influence in Kano has diminished significantly, alleging that many of his key allies have defected to the APC.

“NDC should be smart and intelligent enough to understand that Kwankwaso’s structure was in the past organic in Kano State, but at the moment all his commanding officers have joined the APC,” the statement added.
