LG election: Abia LP rejects Abure’s LG election committee list

Otti emphasized that all official statements or instructions concerning the party’s activities in the state must come from the Caretaker Committee.

He added that any contrary information should be regarded as an act of impersonation and reported to the appropriate authorities.

The statement read,”The attention of the Labour Party, Abia State chapter has been drawn to a radio announcement issued by the former chairman of the Labour Party in the state, Mr. Ceekay Igara directing members of the public on where to purchase nomination forms for the Party’s Primaries ahead of the forthcoming Local Government Election in the state.

“The public is hereby enjoined to disregard the unauthorised and misleading announcement because Mr Igara’s tenure had expired alongside other members of the state and National Working Committees led by Julius Abure, which prompted the Independent National Electoral Commission to cease to recognise them. It is on this basis that the party set up a National Caretaker Committee chaired by Senator Esther Nenadi Usman.

“The Labour Party in Abia State is not interested in extorting members of the public nor obtaining money from them by trick, hence we are poised to ensure that the sale of forms and selection of candidates is done in a responsible, orderly and peaceful manner to ensure that peace reigns even after the exercise”.
