There seems to be an end of the road for the Julius Abure-led faction of the Labour Party (LP), as the erstwhile party’s national chairman was conspicuously absent from the political parties’ stakeholders’ meeting with the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Abuja on Thursday.

Standing in for the LP at the meeting was the party’s national chairman, Senator Nenadi Usman, who attended with the national secretary, Senator Darlington Nwokocha.

There was also a new development as the electoral umpire recognised the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) faction led by the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, during the first consultative meeting.

In attendance at the meeting were the factional Chairman of the Board of Trustees (BoT) and former senator representing Abia North Senatorial District, Mao Ohuabunwa, and the new caretaker committee chairman, Abdulrahman Mohammed.

Also in attendance for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) were the national chairman, Nentawe Goshen Yilwatda, and the national secretary, Ajibola Basiru, as well as the national chairman of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Yusuf Dantalle, among other national leaders of other political parties.
