LABOUR PARTY CRISIS : 5th Columnists At Work. We Will Resist All Attempts To Trauncate Our Democracy. . . State Chairmen

By Mike Aladenika.

The association of State Party Chairmen of the Labour Party has declared that the current crisis forced on the party by some elements who could be described as 4th columnists is nothing but an attempt to truncate multi party democracy in Nigeria. 

The Labour Party's 36 State Chairmen from across the Country rising from an emergency meeting in Benin City 

 passed a Vote of Confidence on the national chairman of the party,Barr. Julius Abure's leadership, stressing that "our resolve to support to his leadership is undisputably.

These Chairmen said "estraineous personalities from political parties are mainly using few bad eggs who have since left the party to  cause disaffection between the party and it's teeming supporters."

The leader of the group, High Chief Rotimi Kehinde describe  the alleged suspension of Barr Julius Abure as "null and void" as it did not "follow the Labour Party Constitution that provides the SEC in Council the power to suspend or pass Vote of Confidence on the National Chairman.

" These crop of persons claiming to have suspended the National Chairman of our party have long left the party and do not have the right to suspend the National Chairman "

" Barr. Julius have Put in so much effort to bring the party to limelight and based on that, we are fully behind him as our National Chairman until the expiration of his tenure".

While to the Edo State Chairman, Comrade Kelly Ogbaloi, "elements in the opposition parties are sponsoring the alleged suspension as a way to distract the party from recovering it's stolen mandate in the last general election.

According to Comrade Kelly Ogbaloi,   "the Party's  Presidential Candidate,Peter Obi and the national Leadership of the party are working hard to recover their mandate and would therefore not accommodate any distraction from those who want to discredit Labour Party before Nigerians.

"As leaders in our various States, we are reaffirming our unalloyed support to Barr. Julius Abure as our authentic National Chairman " he said.

Also speaking, the National Chairman of Labour Party, Barr. Julius Abure noted that Nigeria Democracy is undergoing trial but believes the Judiciary would prove it's onion by defending the Rule of Law.

Comrade Julius Abure who commended Nigerians for their tremendous support in the just concluded general election assures of their commitment to redeem the alleged stolen mandate.

He said the party has resolved to resist all antics to suppress, intimidate and denied the mission to usher in a new Nigeria.

" This democracy was fought for and must be preserved by all lovers of democracy, especially the Judiciary".

"Today our democracy is on trial but the Judiciary must do everything within its power to preserve it".
