Labour Party Faction Rejects Court's Recognition of Nenadi Usman, Plans Appeal
The Abur-led faction of the Labour Party in Nigeria has rejected the Federal High Court's recognition of Nenadi Usman as the party's chair. The faction, led by Julius Abur, plans to appeal the court's ruling, claiming misinterpretation of a Supreme Court decision.
They argue that the leadership matter is an internal party affair and should not be interfered with by the court. The faction insists that the court's decision has created a leadership vacuum within the party since the expiration of the tenure in June 2024.
The dispute highlights the ongoing power struggle within the Labour Party.
