The Labour Party (LP) has re-elected Julius Abure as its National Chairman for a second term in office.
Mr Abure was re-elected by a unanimous affirmation of delegates at the party’s National Convention in Nnewi, Anambra State.
The Chairman of the National Convention and Deputy Governor of Abia State, Ikechukwu Emetu declared him the winner during the event attended by party leaders and members.
It will be recalled that the Labour Party’s National Leadership is currently involved in a messy dispute with the National Leadership of the Nigerian Labour Congress the Original owners of the party.
The NLC alleges that the National Convention which has now returned Mr Abure as the National Chairman of the party is illegal.
The days ahead will show where the pendulum swings in the unending drama within the Labour Party.
