The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has reaffirmed Julius Abure as the legitimate National Chairman of the Labour Party (LP), putting to rest weeks of speculation and internal disputes within the party’s leadership.
A review of INEC’s official portal by DAILY GAZETTE on Sunday confirmed that Abure’s name remains boldly listed as the recognised national chairman of the party.
The listing, which is updated in accordance with Section 82 of the Electoral Act, reflects the commission’s official position on party leadership.
The confirmation comes amid ongoing leadership tussles within the Party, with Senator Nenadi Usman faction contesting Abure’s authority.
Some groups had earlier claimed that INEC had replaced Abure on its registry, an assertion the latest check has now disproved.
