The crisis rocking the Labour Party has further escalated as the party's presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Peter Obi, and his supporters, known as Obidients, have abandoned the party’s national chairman, Julius Abure, to his fate.

After a series of legal battles with the factional chairman of the party, Lamidi Apapa, Abure has been in the news over alleged financial impropriety and other disturbing issues. An insider quoted in the report that some party leaders and chieftains have had a meeting and suggested Belami as the party's next National Chairman.

According to him, he doesn’t even know whether the convention will be held as scheduled as “there are forces fighting against the unity and progress of the party”.
