BREAKING: Labour Party Suspends National Chairman Julius Abure [DETAILS]—-The National Chairman of Labour Party (LP), Julius Abure, has been suspended.
A letter of suspension dated May 14, 2024 and another on May 15, 2024 were ratified at a meeting of the state executive committee on Friday night in Benin.
They stated that the suspension was with immediate effect.
It advised Abure to stop holding out or parading himself as a member of the party.
The letter of suspension was signed by the Ward Chairman, Thompson Ehiguese, and Ward Secretary, Stanley Usiomoh.
“While the suspension is with immediate effect, you are advised to refrain from holding out or parading yourself as a member of Labour Party, Ward 3, Arue, Uromi, Esan North East Local Government Area of Edo State,” the letter said in part.
The State Executive Committee led by Kelly Ogbaloi endorsed the decisions of the ward and local government committee of the party on Friday.
