Addressing a press conference in Abuja on Wednesday, Salisu Mohammed, speaking on behalf of the NTC said the setting up of the Usman-led committee is in line with the LP constitution and electoral act.“The NEC organized by the Governor of Abia State is the most welcome intervention needed to save the Labour Party at this time from the illegalities and corruptions of the Abure hostile capture,” Mohammed said.
“As expected, Abure and his cohorts have gone to town to spread falsehood about the committee and the state of affairs in the Labour Party.“It is mischievous that Abure refers to the Umuahia meeting as the gathering that removed him from office when the truth is that INEC had removed and derecognized him since June 9, 2024.
